Information-Aware Model Predictive Control for Satellite Inspection

A MPC framework for autonomous satellite inspection incorporates estimation covariance into the control objective, merging control and state estimation. The covariance evolves via a linear Kalman filter, and the measurement model depends on relative geometry. This optimizes trajectories for informative data collection while satisfying safety constraints.

Why it matters

The approach demonstrates integration of estimation and control to improve data collection efficiency, relevant for asset monitoring and control tasks.
