Abstract This chapter investigates the dynamics and control problem of Lorentz-augmented spacecraft rendezvous. Previous propellantless rendezvous strategy is developed based on a linearized dynamical model of Lorentz-augmented relative orbital motion. Due to the characteristic of the linearized dynamics, several constraints are imposed on the initial relative position and maneuvering time in this strategy. To get rid of these constraints, nonlinear optimal control schemes for Lorentz spacecraft rendezvous are designed via pseudospectral method in this chapter, based on the nonlinear model of Lorentz-augmented relative motion. In designing the novel rendezvous strategy, two cases with both fixed and free final time are discussed. Also, the effect of J 2 perturbation on optimal rendezvous trajectory is analyzed.
