Abstract
An algorithm for terminal control of the approach of a space robot to an orbital object located in a coplanar orbit is proposed. The range, relative approach velocity, and angular velocity of the line of sight are selected as input parameters of the algorithm. The results of numerical modeling of the approach process of a space robot to an orbital object, performed according to the proposed algorithm, are presented.
