A Review of Autonomous Landing and Rovering Navigation and Guidance Control in Deep Space

Abstract

Exploration of deep space regions such as the Jovian and Uranian systems，the Kuiper Belt，and even the outer reaches of the solar system is a key approach for humanity to expand the boundaries of cosmic cognition and to search for extraterrestrial life information. Therefore，it has become an important direction of global deep space exploration activities. Among them，landing and roving missions are the most direct and effective ways to explore deep space. The navigation，guidance，and control technologies for autonomous landing and roving in deep space are important research contents that urgently need to be broken through，and it is highly necessary to conduct a comprehensive review and summary of them. Therefore，this paper focuses on sorting out the research on navigation，guidance，and control for deep space landing and roving missions. It summarizes the classification and key technologies of autonomous navigation，classifies and elaborates on guidance and control technologies，and respectively analyzes their technical challenges and future development trends，so as to provide technical references for deep space exploration.
