About
Kohei Koga is a researcher in space robotics, with a primary focus on autonomous orbital debris removal and satellite deorbiting technologies. His most cited work, "Deorbiting of Satellites by a Free-Flying Space Robot by Combining Positioning Control and Impedance Control" (2022), addresses the critical challenge of safely capturing and deorbiting defunct satellites and floating space debris. Koga’s major contribution lies in developing a continuous contact control strategy for a free-flying space chaser robot equipped with a robotic manipulator. By integrating positioning control with impedance control, his approach ensures stable and compliant interaction between the manipulator and debris, overcoming limitations of conventional methods that fail to guarantee the required impedance behavior during contact. This work is foundational for future autonomous space debris mitigation missions, directly impacting the safety and sustainability of orbital environments. With 3 citations, his research is gaining recognition among specialists in space robotics and debris management. Koga’s achievements highlight his expertise in control systems, robotic manipulation, and orbital mechanics, positioning him as an emerging contributor to the field of space sustainability.
