Features: This book is a specialized work in the field of deep space exploration systems engineering, focusing on deep space tracking and control networks. The book is divided into four chapters, discussing deep space exploration and its methods, deep space tracking mission analysis, deep space networks and their structures, and deep space network operation technologies. To make the discussion more concrete, the book takes lunar exploration as an example. Based on the two-body theory, it linearly combines the Earth-Moon transfer orbit and the lunar hyperbolic orbit, and applies the two-body theory to analyze and calculate the transfer of the from the Earth-Moon transfer orbit to the lunar hyperbolic orbit, mid-course navigation and its strategies, and lunar orbit insertion and its strategies in the orbital plane. The content of the book is systematic and complete, and strives to be connected with practical engineering. Its characteristic is that it emphasizes both theoretical and practical aspects. It is suitable for researchers and analysts in aerospace tracking and control systems, and can also be used as a textbook for aerospace tracking and control majors in universities and a reference book for graduate students.
