Application of A Dual-Quaternion Six Degree-of-Freedom Guidance to Human-Scale Mars Entry, Descent, and Landing
Landing humans on Mars comes with many challenges, including the execution of a safe and precise entry, descent, and landing (EDL) sequence. Various NASA studies have shown that there are a variety of EDL guidance methods that potentially offer solutions to the human-scale EDL precision landing problem and work is ongoing to assess new and novel methods. As part of these ongoing studies, a dual-quaternion-based six degree-of-freedom guidance algorithm was implemented in the Program to Optimize Simulated Trajectories II (POST2), a NASA-and industry-standard spacecraft trajectory and vehicle design tool. This algorithm considers both translational and rotational dynamics and casts the trajectory optimization problem as a quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) with various constraints at discrete nodes throughout the trajectory. The QCQP problem is solved via an alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) approach, and the output is a discretized optimal trajectory. The guidance is applied to a NASA reference human-scale Mars EDL system, and results are compared and discussed.
