Optimal Orbit Transfer Analysis for Advanced
Space Systems Spectrum Astro, Inc. Gilbert AZ
Small Business Innovation Research
INNOVATION Prototype computer program, the
Maneuver Analysis Planning System (MAPS) tool,
for optimizing a wide variety of advanced mission
scenarios. Advanced stochastic optimization
techniques and modern trajectory
computation/optimization methods are integrated
into a single, synergistic software
architecture.  
  • ACCOMPLISHMENTS
  • Multi-Algorithm Trajectory Simulation (MATS)
    prototype software development for computing
    accurate results to both low and high-thrust
    optimization problems. Applicable to both mission
    analysis and mission planning.
  • Multifunctional Stochastic Optimizer (MSOPT)
    prototype software development that integrates
    genetic algorithm and simulated annealing
    techniques into one package.
  • High-fidelity models including DE405 Ephemerides
    are incorporated into the MATS software package.
  • COMMERCIALIZATION
  • Spectrum plans to integrate MATS with its ground
    software package, AstroRT, for marketing as an
    add-on module.
  • Spectrum will offer MATS in its spacecraft
    development proposals.
  • Spectrum will use the unified program MAPS in
    engineering support services to the space
    industry.
  • GOVERNMENT/SCIENCE APPLICATIONS
  • Provided optimal low-thrust strategies for
    Constellation X (CON-X) and Solar Dynamics
    Observatory (SDO) planning.
  • Currently employed in low/high-thrust trade
    studies for Next Generation Space Telescope
    (NGST).
  • Flight Dynamics Analysis Branch expects MAPS to
    be its principal tool for studies involving
    low-thrust orbit transfer.
