Abstract

To improve the capacity of space attack and defense, this paper proposed the idea of stealth trajectory realization in view of the working principles of space sensor CCD camera. The motion camouflage strategy was first introduced and applied to space activities. A space attack scenario was hence presumed to deduce the ideal stealth discipline under C-W relative motion regulations in constant x direction acceleration. Simulation results proved the trajectory could be realized, and the effectiveness of stealth property could only be realized within stealth corridor. When the weapon was close enough, straight-attack are suggested to be adopted.
