文摘A new method is developed for stabilizing motion on collinear libration point orbits using the formalism of the circular restricted three body problem. Linearization about the collinear libration point orbits yields an unstable linear parameter-varying system with periodic coefficients. Given the variational equations, an innovative control law based on characteristic exponent assignment is introduced for libration point orbit maintenance. A numerical simulation choosing the Richardson's third order approximation for a halo orbit as a nominal orbit is conducted, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of this control law.
