Abstract

Focused on the optimization of lunar ascent nominal trajectory, an algorithm based on the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) parameter estimation is proposed in this paper. The optimization of lunar ascent nominal trajectory problem requiring minimum fuel is formulated as a two-point boundary value problem (TPBVP) through the maximum principle. By treating the initial values of the costate variables as parameters to be estimated and setting the deviation of terminal values as target observations, the TPBVP is then transformed into a parameter estimation problem and solved by the UKF parameter estimation algorithm. Numerical simulation results demonstrate that the algorithm can be used to optimize lunar ascent nominal trajectory, it can also overcome the difficulty of guessing the initial values of the costate variables, and the calculating efficiency is higher than traditional optimization algorithm under the premise of guaranteed accuracy.
