Abstract
The problem of formation and reconfiguration of multiple microsatellite sys tems is addressed. A control scheme called the perceptive frame is adopted that integrates the decentralized feedback of each satellite with online se nsor information to achieve the goal of formation keeping and intersatellit e coordination. The proposed design algorithm has the advantage of relative position keeping and easy formation reconfiguration.
