L2 Station Keeping Maneuver Strategy for the James Webb Space Telescope

[摘要] The station-keeping plan for the James Webb Space Telescope is zero velocity in the x-component at the fourth successive crossing of the XZ plane of the rotation libration point frame. A differential corrector is employed to determine the necessary delta-v. Maneuvering along the position component of the stable eigenvector of the monodromy matrix produces a minimum delta-v solution. The techniques developed to determine the minimum maneuver direction in a full ephemeris model, along with strategies to cope with the attitude constraints imposed by the sunshield that prevents the ability to maneuver along the stable eigenvector, are examined in this study.
