Abstract

A multi-step control of chaos method is proposed in this paper to reduce the flight time in the chaotic region of Earth-Moon low-energy orbit transfer. According to the motion regularity and the fact that the chaos orbit is highly sensitive to the initial conditions in the circular restricted three-body system, the optimal perturbation of chaos control at each step is calculated by the adaptive particle swarm optimization algorithm, and then the low-energy earth-moon orbit transfer trajectory is obtained. This proposed method can efficiently construct the Earth-Moon low-energy orbit transfer trajectory without the relying on the periodic orbits and the requirement of random search, and the corresponding flight time in chaotic motion can be significantly reduced. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the correctness and efficiency of this proposed method.
