Construction of Rendezvous Trajectories in the Knowledge Bases of Onboard Operational-Advisory Expert Systems of the Flight Stage

A new algorithm is proposed for constructing the rendezvous trajectory of an aircraft with another aircraft flying along a straight trajectory at a slower speed. The trajectory is formed for the following flight profile: ascent–flight at the given altitude (fly-over altitude)–descent to the rendezvous point. The characteristics of the ascent, fly-over, and descent stages for constructing the trajectory until the rendezvous are determined as a result of processing the flight experiment.
