| A scheme for the passive deployment of a tethered satellite system as applied to the descent of a small space vehicle from the orbit is investigated. An analytical model of the maneuver in the form of algebraic expressions relating the initial conditions, the parameters of the tethered satellite system and re-entry conditions are developed. The investigation results are given. |
