Abstract:Tether-net launched from a chaser spacecraft provides a promising method to capture and dispose off large space debris in orbit. This tether-net system is subject to several sources of uncertainty in sensing and actuation that affect the performance of its net launch and closing control. Earlier reliability based optimization approaches to design control actions however remain challenging and computationally prohibitive to generalize over varying launch scenarios and target (debris) state relative to chaser.
