Definition

A reference frame centered at the Moon's center, based on the three-body synodic coordinate system, with X-axis parallel to the instantaneous Earth-Moon direction and Z-axis perpendicular to the Earth-Moon orbital plane.

Application Value

Lunar Centered Rotating Frame plays an important role in orbital dynamics and attitude control, serving as a critical tool for analyzing spacecraft motion characteristics. Research on this concept enables optimization of orbit transfer schemes and improvement of control system performance.
