Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle Simulation System On-Board Processing Logic

The control logic for an Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle (OMV) Simulation system is developed. In order that better control over the vehicle can be exercised, several modifications to the vehicle are suggested. The need of better position feedback leads to the development of an alternative simpler but more reliable navigation system which is also discussed. The control logic is presented in pseudocode form, and can be implemented in FORTRAN and/or MACRO II.
