Abstract

A new dimension-reduction algorithm based on the optimal thruster combination table for solving the spacecraft thrusters´ control allocation problem is proposed. The general design method of this new algorithm is detailed. The 3-dimension algorithm is cited as an example. And the simulation results demonstrate the advantage of this new dimension-reduction algorithm in being a good compromise among control accuracy, fuel consumption, real time computation speed and space for data storage. Its value in engineering is also pointed out.
