Uncooperative Spacecraft Relative Navigation With LIDAR-Based Unscented Kalman Filter
Autonomous relative navigation is a critical functionality which needs to be developed to enable safe maneuvers of a servicing spacecraft (chaser) in close-proximity with respect to an uncooperative space target, in the frame of future On-Orbit Servicing or Active Debris Removal missions.Due to the uncooperative nature of the target, in these scena
