With the development of network and distributed computing, many applications of multi vehicle system have become possible, and motion transformation can be realized. In multi vehicle coordination, the interaction between information exchange topology and control plays an important role. Different formation control methods have different performance. Thus, in order to figure out which method is suitable for multiple spacecraft, the author simulated the signal unstable environment in space to test the robustness and consensus speed of the following three methods. The author use Bearing-only Formation Control, A leader–follower Formation Control and Affine Formation Control to test their performance with local part communications. The author use matlab and simulink to analog communication process of multiple spacecraft. Finally, the author find Affine Formation Control’s performance is the best. It has the best robustness and the fast consensus speed but more energy and signal paths to communicate.
