In this paper we present decentralized control policies for spacecraft formation, based on the simple idea of cyclic pursuit. First, we extend the existing cyclic-pursuit control laws devised for a single integrator to a double integrator. Such dynamically extended control laws only require relative measurements of position and velocity of two leading neighbors, and allow spacecraft to converge, globally in three dimensions, to a single point, a circle or a logarithmic spiral pattern, depending on the value of a control parameter. Second, we modify the aforementioned control laws to allow convergence to elliptical trajectories in three dimensions, that represent natural trajectories of the relative motion between spacecraft in a rotating frame around the earth. Finally, we discuss the applicability of the devised control laws to the problem of spacecraft coordination for interferometric imaging, and their implementation on a 4DOF testbed.
