Coordinated manipulator/spacecraft motion control for space robotic systems

Abstract
The coordinated control of space manipulators and their spacecraft is investigated. The dynamics of free-flying space robotic systems are written compactly as functions of the system barycentric vectors. A control technique is developed that includes requirements on a spacecraft's position and orientation as well as on its manipulator. This control scheme has the double advantage of allowing a system's motio
