Star tracker is one of the most promising optical attitude measurement devices and it is widely used in spacecraft for its high accuracy. However, how to realize and verify such an accuracy remains a crucial but unsolved issue until now. The authenticity of the accuracy measurement method of a star tracker will eventually determine the satellite performance. A new and robust accuracy measuremen...
متن کاملStar Tracker-Based Acquisition, Tracking, and Pointing Technology for Deep-Space Optical communications
This article presents the concept and estimates of the pointing-knowledge accuracy of a star tracker-based acquisition, tracking, and pointing system. The major advantages of this technology are (1) no requirement for a costly groundbased laser beacon, (2) a large mission range beyond the solar system, and (3) a heritage of mature star tracker technology. The key concept is to combine highaccur...
متن کاملDesign of a Miniature CMOS APS Star Tracker
Star trackers are currently the most advanced attitude measuring instruments. They have the advantages of high precision, small quality, no drift, strong antiinterference and autonomous navigation without relying on other navigation systems. This paper proposes the design of a low-quality, small-size and high-accuracy star tracker that is constructed by a self-developed CMOS APS (Complementary ...
متن کاملDesign of the Compact Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Antenna Bandwidth Optimization Using Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm
In this paper a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented to design a compact stepped triangle shape antenna in order to obtain the proper UWB bandwidth as defined by FCC. By changing the various cavity dimensions of the antenna, data to develop PSO program in MATLAB is achieved. The results obtained from the PSO algorithm are applied to the antenna design to fine-tune the bandwi...
