With regard to the benefits of using multiple vehicles, the concept
of formation control has been studied extensively in the literature
with application to the coordination of multiple robots, unmanned
air vehicles (UAVs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs),
satellites, aircraft and spacecraft. There are many advantages of
using formations of multiple vehicles, such as increased
feasibility, robustness, accuracy, flexibility, cost efficiency and
probability of success. The propulsion system on a spacecraft is of
key importance in formation flying missions and life time of
mission depends on the available fuel on the spacecraft.
Furthermore, in the missions where spacecrafts are flying in close
proximity the exhaust plums from the thrusters of a satellite can
damage the near by spacecraft which might result in total failure
to the mission. In this study a recently developed concept of
Coulomb satellite equipped with hybrid propulsion system will be
presented. With the combination of Equilibrium shaping technique
and Coulomb satellite concepts certain formations can be produced
for which minimum communication between swarm agents and maximum
fuel saving (up to 80%) is possible.
