In order to achieve high precision relative navigation of spacecraft formation in solar L2 orbit, a distributed autonomous navigation method is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the local measurement topology is formed by information interaction such that each satellite only estimates the states based on the measurement between neighbors, thereby reducing the states dimension and calculation amount. Then, the information fusion is conducted according to the results of mutual estimation to improve the estimation accuracy. On this basis, the main factors affecting the final estimation error are analyzed, and the approximation formula is proposed. Numerical simulation shows the accuracy can achieve cm order of position estimation and mm/s order of velocity estimation. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the method and prove that the method can be applied in engineering.
