Abstract
► General periodic condition is derived at arbitrary position in elliptic orbits. ► Zero offset condition is derived to make the leader locate at the formation center. ► State transition matrix and energy matching condition approaches are used. ► The periodic relative motion is expressed in arbitrary elliptic orbits. ► Numerical simulation results show the bounded relative motion in elliptic orbits.
