Abstract A novel semi-physical simulation platform that can be used for verification on spacecraft omni-directional rendezvous is presented. The platform is comprised of a 6-DOFs motion module and a 3-DOFs motion module, which provides the capability for reconstructing the motion of spacecraft rendezvous on the ground. The mechanical structure and the dynamics model of the platform are given at first. Then the reference trajectory for the platform’s motion module is developed based on the similarity theory and a tracking controller is designed. Finally, the effectiveness of the simulation platform is demonstrated by the numerical simulation of flying-by rendezvous.
