Abstract

"The research described in this thesis focuses on the development and analysis of discrete maneuvering techniques for maintaining a two satellite formation within required error tolerances for a given operational mode. In particular, formation sizes and control tolerances are sought for which impulsive maneuvering becomes a practical option"--Abstract, page iii.
