Nonlinear control problems of a space robot during mooring and docking with a geostationary communications satellite as well as when its on-orbit maintenance – replacement of fuel tanks and other important elements of a satellite’s motion control system are considered. These problems are associated with significant changes in the inertial parameters in the satellite-robot mechanical system. Despite this complicating circumstance, the paper shows that the developed control laws are quite effective, which is confirmed by computer simulation.
