摘要
简述了美国"微卫星技术试验"(Micro-satellite Technology Experiment,MiTEx)计划进展情况,根据目前可获得的最新的MiTEx卫星轨道数据,对其整个飞行过程进行了深入研究,划分了MiTEx-A卫星与MiTEx-B卫星飞行阶段,描述了各阶段飞行轨迹,给出了飞行任务关键数据,对其飞行任务进行了总结。在飞行任务分析的基础上,结合国外对MiTEx卫星的相关报道,分析了MiTEx卫星可能具备的抵近操作任务执行能力,提出了对高轨非合作目标抵近操作应用的启示,总结分析了执行高轨抵近操作任务所需的关键技术。
MiTEx（Micro-satellite Technology Experiment） is an American satellite deployed on a quasi-geosynchronous orbit, which includes MiTEx-A and MiTEx-B. The mission of MiTEx is to conduct approaching operations to the geostationary orbit satellites. In the paper, the develop- ment situations of MiTEx plan are presented. According to the orbit elements that can be ac- quired currently, the whole flight process of MiTEx is deeply studied, the flight stages of MiTEx-A and MiTEx-B satellite are partitioned, the flight tracks of each stage described, and the important track data provided. The flight mission of MiTEx satellites are analyzed. On the basis of flight mission analysis, and incombination with the literatures about MiTEx, the probable ca- pabilities of MiTEx are conjectured. Based on the MiTEx mission, inspirations for the applica- tions and required key technologies of approaching operations on non-cooperative GEO targets are proposed.
