Optimal Trajectory Generation and Feedback Tension Control of a Robotic Space Tether Launching System

S. Liu, S. Wang, M. Duan

Overview

A robotic arm accelerates and launches a tethered payload. Nonlinear modeling includes distributed tether mass and directional tension coupling; optimized feedforward motion and tension feedback are evaluated in simulation for accurate payload delivery.
