An innovative mission concept, referred to as a nuclear hypervelocity asteroid intercept vehicle (HAIV) system, employs both a kinetic-energy impactor and nuclear explosive devices. A new mission concept of exploiting a multiple kinetic-energy impactor vehicle (MKIV) system that doesn’t employ nuclear explosives is proposed in this paper, especially for asteroids smaller than approximately 150 m in diameter. The multiple shock wave interaction effect on disrupting or pulverizing a small asteroid is discussed using hydrodynamic simulation results. A multi-target terminal guidance problem and a planetary defense mission design employing a heavy-lift launch vehicle are also brie y discussed in support of the new non-nuclear MKIV mission concept. The nuclear HAIV and non-nuclear MKIV systems complement to each other to effectively mitigate the various asteroid impact threats with short warning time.展开更多

A dynamic on-line trajectory planning technique was discussed to meet the demand of guidance control under complex constraints, and model based identification and adaptive control technology was suggested to deal with the control problems caused by model uncertainty and disturbance, and an integrated avionics system based on high speed communication was put forward for module integration and distributed control, and FBG based real time flight control was also discussed. Moreover, other key technologies, such as wireless interconnection, wireless power transfer, and temporal and spatial partitioning operating system, are both briefly introduced for the application in control systems. These studies will lead to breakthroughs in autonomous flight control in LV, and provide technical support for more long-term deep space explorations.展开更多
