Abstract Theoretical and experimental studies were performed with the goal of determining the best kind of information presented on a predictive display to provide the highest accuracy in space mission execution, taking into account the requirement for reduced propellant consumption. The following space missions were studied: docking performed in manual and teleoperator control modes and lunar landing. By using a theoretical technique, algorithms for the flight path marker in manual and teleoperator control modes were developed. For the landing mission, a technique for determining the program trajectory and its calculation in real time was proposed. The experiments performed using a ground-based simulator demonstrated the high effectiveness of a predictive display and allowed to select the best variant of information to be presented on the display.
Highlights The predictive display is a means of improving of flight safety in different space missions. The proposed algorithm for time delay suppression improves precise tracking in a docking task performed in teleoperator mode. The proposed law for optimizing the Lunar Lander trajectory is performed in real time and provides the economy of propellant.
