Abstract

This paper presents some preliminary results on the coordinated planning of collision avoidance manoeuvres in two different cases: two or more satellites belonging to the same constellation manoeuvering to avoid the collision with an inert object and two or more satellites belonging to different constellations manoeuvering to avoid a collision. In both cases we consider an uncertainty in the correct calculation of the probability of collision and we plan robust manoeuvres that account for both aleatory and epistemic uncertainty. A Multi-Criteria Decision Making process is then used to select the optimal strategy in both cases.
