The periodic skip-glide trajectory models for hypersonic vehicle in near space were brought out and simulated in this paper. Firstly, the basic concepts of hypersonic vehicle and different trajectory modes were introduced in detail. Then, the three degrees of freedom model of hypersonic vehicle was given. Lastly, the model was simulated and analyzed using MATLAB. The difference changing trend of periodic trajectory, velocity, effective range, trajectory obliquity and dynamic pressure are given. How the main factors such as trajectory obliquity, launch orientation affect the periodicity was also studied. The primary simulations show that the periodic trajectory of hypersonic vehicle helpful in studying new space vehicle.
