Spacecraft potential control for Double Star
The spacecraft potential of Double Star TC-1 is positive in large parts of the orbits due to the photo-effect from solar EUV irradiation. These positive potentials typically disturb low energy plasma measurements on board. The potential can be reduced, and thereby the particle measurements improved, by emitting a positive ion beam. This method has successfully been applied on several other spac...
متن کاملFuzzy Sliding Mode for Spacecraft Formation Control in Eccentric Orbits
The problem of relative motion control for spacecraft formation flying in eccentric orbits is considered in this paper. Due to the presence of nonlinear dynamics and external disturbances, a robust fuzzy sliding mode controller is developed. The slopes of sliding surfaces of the conventional sliding mode controller are tuned according to error states using a fuzzy logic and reach the pre-define...
متن کاملActive spacecraft potential control for Cluster – implementation and first results
Electrostatic charging of a spacecraft modifies the distribution of electrons and ions before the particles enter the sensors mounted on the spacecraft body. The floating potential of magnetospheric satellites in sunlight very often reaches several tens of volts, making measurements of the cold (several eV) component of the ambient ions impossible. The plasma electron data become contaminated b...
متن کاملEarth’s Magnetic Field for Spacecraft Attitude Control Applications (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In this paper the earth’s magnetic field is simulated precisely while the intensity and direction of the field are verified with one of the standard references for selected points on the earth and the results are compared with some low-order models. In another simulation, the complete model is compared with a common approximate model. The magnetic field in orbital frame is described and to empl...
متن کاملNeural Network Star Pattern Recognition for Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control
Currently, the most complex spacecraft attitude determination and control tasks are ultimately governed by ground-based systems and personnel. Conventional on-board systems face severe computational bottlenecks introduced by serial microprocessors operating on inherently parallel problems. New computer architectures based on the anatomy of the human brain seem to promise high speed and fault-to...
