Formation flying of multiple satellites is an enabling technology for many future space science missions. This paper addresses the problem of formation control and coordination of multiple satellite formation flying systems. Several coordination strategies for satellite formation flying are discussed. A new coordination framework based on multi-agent with advantages of robustness, flexibility and realization is proposed which considers not only the control of relative motion but also the interactions among multiple satellites in the formation. An LQR controller is presented for relative position control of satellites formation and a two-satellite formation simulation analysis was performed to demonstrate and validate the efficacy of the scheme.
