Abstract
Spacecraft orbit computation is a fundamental problem in the field of aerospace dynamics and control. Future space missions put forward higher demands for more accurate and real-time orbit computational methods. The research on new orbit computational methods with higher performances has significant application value for future aerospace engineering of China. This paper summarizes the research background of space orbit computation and then gives a systematic review of various types of computational methods for solving orbit propagation and Lambert problems. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods,as well as the development tendency of orbit computational methods are discussed. This paper can provide references for choosing suitable computational methods in specific aerospace tasks,as well as inspirations for designing novel and high-performance orbit computational methods.
