Abstract
This survey deals with the problem of the group motion of spacecraft, which is rapidly developing and relevant for many applications, in terms of developing the onboard control algorithms to ensure the fulfillment of a given mission. The paper provides a comprehensive overview of spacecraft formation flight control. The bibliography is divided into three main sections: the multiple-input–multiple-output approach, in which the formation is treated as a single entity with multiple inputs and multiple outputs; the leader–follower formation, in which individual spacecraft controllers are linked hierarchically; and a virtual structure formation, in which spacecraft are treated as rigid bodies embedded in a common virtual rigid body. This survey expands a 2004 survey and updates it with recent results.
