The reachable domain is a geometric description of the maneuverability of a spacecraft under control and/or measurement uncertainties. In this paper, the reachable domain concept is introduced into the field of satellite relative motion and termed the relative reachable domain. The relative reachable domain geometrically represents the effects of the initial control and/or measurement uncertainties on relative motion. A general method is developed to find the envelope of the coplanar relative reachable domain for arbitrary reference orbits, by evaluating the extremal values of the potentially accessible radius with respect to a given reference position. The relative reachable domain formulations are analytically expressed for circular reference orbits. It is shown that the relative reachable domain is a convenient tool for analyzing a variety of cluster flight mission problems. Several practical applications are suggested, including determining the upper bound on the separation distances among satellites....
