“…Additionally, it is found that both the eddy current torque and the magnetic field at the target center reach their maximum values under the same configuration. In order to racemize non-cooperative targets in space safely and efficiently, Wan et al [15] proposed an eddy current braking method using multiple high temperature superconducting (HTS) coils. The vortex braking process is analyzed, and a nonlinear control law based on consensus theory is designed, taking into account the generation and maintenance of the ideal magnetic field.…”

High-speed space debris threatens the safety of satellites in orbit, making the efficient removal of this debris an increasingly unavoidable necessity. By exploring the non-contact de-tumbling method for high-speed rotating targets, a de-tumbling technique is proposed. This method relies on leveraging the differential magnetic moments of two satellites arranged in tangential formation. Two single-coil electromagnetic satellites form a uniform magnetic field at the rotating targets, forming a tangential collinear distribution. The de-tumbling method of the simultaneous change of the magnetic moment of two satellites and the change of magnetic moment of one satellite and the other satellite is explored, and the de-tumbling effect is compared through numerical simulation. The simulation results indicate that the de-tumbling effect of the latter method is superior. Additionally, there is minimal variation observed in the relative distance between servicing stars and between servicing stars and target stars throughout the de-tumbling process.
