## Abstract Primer vector theory is used in analysing a set of linear relative‐motion equations—the Clohessy‐Wiltshire (C/W) equations—to determine the criteria and necessary conditions for an optimal __N__‐impulse trajectory. Since the state vector for these equations is defined in terms of a line
