文摘In this paper, two formation controllers are developed under directed and undirected communication topology for six-degree-of-freedom （6-DOF） networked spacecraft flying in deep space. In the control algorithm, any explicit leader does not exist in the formation team and the proposed controller is required that each spacecraft communicates with its neighbors only, which avoids having to communicate each spacecraft＇s trajectory and therefore reduces the required communication loads of the whole formation. The proposed control strategy allows that each spacecraft can track its desired position and attitude and simultaneously the whole group moves to the desired formation and obtains its desired relative attitudes between spaceerafts. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.
