Abstract: With the increasing frequency of human space activities, space missions are moving towards diversification and unmanned autonomy. In recent years, some emerging space missions, represented by on-orbit servicing, formation flight, and deep space exploration, have gained extensive attention and continued investment from major aerospace powers in the world. The attitude planning and control technology with high reliability, high precision and strong autonomy is core to ensuring that the spacecraft safely and successfully implements these space missions. However, multiple constraints encountered during the spacecraft on-orbit operation pose significant challenges to attitude planning and control algorithm design. In this paper, complex constraints are first analyzed and characterized. Then, the existing attitude planning and control methods are classified in terms of constraint processing mechanisms. After that, the research context and advantages and disadvantages of each method are sorted out, and some representative results are reviewed. Furthermore, the state of art and urgent challenges in critical research areas are summarized. Finally, considering the major demands of China's aerospace industry, the developing direction of spacecraft attitude planning and control under multiple constraints is discussed.
