Description:

(20STDPM06) This project will investigate applications of machine intelligence to accelerate the evaluation and training systems for the configuration of model based tracking systems (also known as non-cooperative tracking). This will accelerate time to market for satellite rendezvous and proximity operations tools. Enhancements to evaluation tools will allow significant increases in analysis capabilities which will both accelerate time to solutions and provide opportunities for improvements to mission safety and quality assurance. The outputs of this study will result in significantly faster development of tracking configurations and algorithms, providing a key enabling technology to allow autonomous vehicles to engage in orbital debris removal, satellite servicing, and construction in LEO and beyond.
