[Unit("Hz/s")]
Vector3 Kp;

Description

Proportional gain vector for the PD controller. Each component corresponds to the radial (x), along-track (y), and cross-track (z) axes in the LVLH frame. Units: [1/s²] = [Hz/s] (acceleration per distance).

Default values are tuned for stable formation flying control:

  • Base natural frequency: 20x orbital rate (~0.0216 rad/s for 7000 km orbit)
  • Along-track (y) uses 2x multiplier to counteract orbital drift
  • Critical damping (ζ=1.0) for optimal response
