FA-69796 / Orbital propagation / Open access

Co-orbital phasing manoeuvre: Chaser raises its orbit to catch a target ahead · case 01

The target gets further ahead after the phasing orbit.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The lead angle is added to the period.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Shorten the period when the target is ahead.

Unsuccessful approach: Subtracting the lead angle in degrees mixes units.

Case contract

Input [r, theta, k, mu, rmin]: circular radius, target lead angle in degrees (positive = target ahead), k phasing revolutions. Phasing period Tph=T-theta_rad/(k n). a_ph from Tph; total dv = 2|v_ph(r)-v_circ| with vis-viva at r. Return None if the phasing perigee 2a_ph-r is below rmin, else [a_ph rounded 3, dv rounded 6, k*Tph rounded 3].

Why this case matters

Orbit determination and mission planning chain many small conversions; one wrong branch or unit silently moves a spacecraft by kilometres.

Verification & scope

A deterministic toy two-body model with stipulated constants and conventions; not flight dynamics software or a validated SGP4 implementation. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
