In this paper, we present the dynamics and control of satellite formation where the chaser satellites fence a target satellite. Using velocity impulsive control the chasers are guided towards the desired relative positions for the general elliptical planar formation. Next, a control strategy for the chasers is proposed for tracking the target satellite, wherein they orient their sensors towards the target satellite. Numerical simulations are done to validate the efficacy of the methods and proposed controller.
