Assessment Study<br />

Report: CDF-20(A)<br />

February 2004<br />

The cycle starts with the collection of all constraints. Then, an optimal 3DoF trajectory is<br />

computed. From the corridor requirements, the equipment design and the mission arc GNC<br />

modes, a guidance law is generated.<br />

Next the control algorithms are developed to be able to follow the previously established<br />

guidance law, and finally a new 6DoF trajectory is computed in closed loop and with<br />

mathematical models of sensors and actuators.<br />

MoteCarlo analysis are run for performance verification and validation.<br />

The optimal trajectory has been described in the relevant chapter 4.4.1.<br />

4.4.5.3.1 Entry corridor design<br />

The performance factors to take into account are controllability, stability, algorithm speed,<br />

computational loads, etc.<br />

Predefined yellow (caution) and red tubes (warning) around the nominal path have been<br />

established to compute the controllability of the system around the pre-established optimal<br />

trajectory.<br />
