Abstract The partial space elevator is a space transportation system that conveys cargo by a climber moving along the tether that connects the main satellite and the end body. This work proposed a novel prescribed performance based dual-loop control strategy for configuration keeping of the partial space elevator in cargo transportation. The control loop I controls the libration angle of the climber by a newly proposed prescribed performance control law to track the desired state with bounded performance. The Lyapunov stability of the control law is proved analytically. Control loop II stabilizes the overall configuration of the PSE by applying thrust and deploying/retrieving the tether simultaneously at the end body. To enforce the constraint that the total tether length is unchanged at the end of transportation, an event-triggered loaning control algorithm is proposed to further improve the Control loop II. Numerical simulations validate the prescribed performance based dual-loop control strategy. The results show that the stable configuration of the PSE is kept effectively with no libration motion in the period of cargo transportation.

    Highlights A new dual-loop control strategy to keep PSE configuration in cargo transportation. A prescribed performance control law to keep the climber's libration angle. An event-triggered loaning control to incorporate configuration constraint.
