In-orbit magnetometer bias and scale factor calibration
Magnetometers are widely used for LEO small satellites attitude determination and control system. In order to estimate satellite dynamics and control attitude accurately, scale factor and bias of magnetometer must be estimated. In this study a linear Kalman filter (LKF) based algorithm for the estimation of magnetometer biases and scale factors is proposed. Proposed algorithms are simulated thr...
متن کاملAttitude-Independent Magnetometer Calibration with Time-Varying Bias
We present a method for on-orbit, attitudeindependent magnetometer calibration that includes the effect of time-varying bias due to electronics on-board a spacecraft. The calibration estimates magnetometer scale factors, mis-alignments, and constant as well as time-varying bias. Timevarying effects are mitigated by including spacecraft telemetry in the measurement model and estimating constant ...
متن کاملCassini magnetometer observations during Saturn orbit insertion.
Cassini's successful orbit insertion has provided the first examination of Saturn's magnetosphere in 23 years, revealing a dynamic plasma and magnetic environment on short and long time scales. There has been no noticeable change in the internal magnetic field, either in its strength or its near-alignment with the rotation axis. However, the external magnetic field is different compared with pa...
متن کاملComplete Triaxis Magnetometer Calibration in the Magnetic Domain
This paper presents an algorithm for calibrating erroneous tri-axis magnetometers in the magnetic field domain. Unlike existing algorithms, no simplification is made on the nature of errors to ease the estimation. A complete error model, including instrumentation errors (scale factors, nonorthogonality, and offsets) and magnetic deviations (soft and hard iron) on the host platform, is elaborate...
متن کاملA Geometric Approach to Strapdown Magnetometer Calibration in Sensor Frame ⋆
In this work a new algorithm is derived for the onboard calibration of three-axis strapdown magnetometers. The proposed calibration method is written in the sensor frame, and compensates for the combined effect of all linear time-invariant distortions, namely soft iron, hard iron, sensor non-orthogonality, bias, among others. A Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) is formulated to iteratively fin...
