Abstract
The section covers problems of the dynamics, control, and navigation of the CubeSat-based satellite constellations and formation flying. The main features of the nanosatellites such as onboard power limitations, weight and size restrictions, motion determination, and control system constraints are emphasized and taken into account. The existing and perspective control approaches are described and discussed. For CubeSat formation flying the overview of relative motion determination approaches is presented. The special attention is paid ...
