光学稳像系统颤振抑制性能的分析与设计

光学稳定成像方法是一种用于隔离视轴颤振对成像质量影响的综合处理技术,它结合传统光学与反馈控制理论,通过闭环控制系统驱动在光成像通路内的动态校正机构补偿探测视轴与成像焦面间的相对运动,进而有效提升成像质量。文章首先建立了光学稳像系统的回路模型,并在此基础上,根据控制系统稳定性判据导出了颤振抑制函数的设计约束,分析了像移测量延时特性、测量精度特性及校正机构动态性能对颤振抑制带宽的影响。文章进一步给出了一种光学稳像系统颤振抑制带宽的设计方法,该方法针对视轴颤振的功率谱密度、像移探测性能和光机校正机构的动态性能完成了颤振抑制带宽的优化,从而可最小化颤振补偿残差。最后通过试验验证了文中分析结论和设计方法的有效性。

Operation of the Spektr-R orientation system

Errors in pointing and sustaining Spektr-R are estimated based on the data of star sensors and an angular velocity vector meter, and the calculated values are compared with the observed values. It has been indicated that the achieved pointing accuracy is significantly better than the required accuracy and is independent of the number of star sensors used for this purpose; finally, the stabilization parameters correspond to the anticipated parameters. The original method for processing adjustment observations of the space radio telescope in the 1.35-cm range used to find a systematic deviation of 2.5′ of the telescope real electric axis from the nominal angular position has been described.

Spacecraft images obtained with a telescope at the Altai Optical Laser Center using adaptive optics

We present the results of experiments in which low-orbit spacecraft were observed from the Earth’s surface by the 600-mm optical telescope of the Altai Optical Laser Center. Thanks to the use of an adaptive optical unit, the angular resolution of images obtained is limited only by diffraction on the collective aperture of the telescope, and this angular resolution is better than that determined in a turbulent atmosphere without adaptive optics by a factor of 5 to 10.     

High-precision single-input control of relative motion in spacecraft formation

A Newton-type method is proposed to improve the accuracy of control for relative motion of two satellites in close formation. We assume that the deputy satellite is equipped with a passive attitude control system that provides one-axis stabilization, and one or two orbit control thrusters are installed along the stabilized axis. Previous studies show that it is possible to construct periodic relative trajectories both in case of passive magnetic and spin stabilization. However, the accuracy of the numerically obtained control is quite low due to modeling errors caused by linearization of the equations of relative motion. Therefore, a correction procedure is required to compensate for nonlinear effects. To this end we suggest a recently developed algorithm based on the Newton method for solving nonlinear systems with geometric constraints. Being implemented, this algorithm allows decreasing the modeling error by up to ten times. The previously found control and trajectory of the linearized system are used as initial approximations.

Modelling of the optical observations of a geosynchronous fragmentation event

A study of the evolution and optical detectability of a fragmentation debris cloud in geosynchronous orbit has been carried out. The 1998 NASA breakup model has been used to generate orbit data for 95 fragments larger than 10 cm size from a 1000 kg satellite. The orbital evolution of these fragments is studied using a precision numerical propagator, employing a high-fidelity force model. Although the fragments rapidly disperse throughout the geostationary arc, they remain localised in right ascension of ascending node and inclination, and are driven along a narrow inertial corridor by luni-solar perturbations. The ESA PROOF software is used to study the detectability of the fragments using a 1- and 0.5-m telescope design. The 1-m telescope can detect 82% of the fragments (down to 13 cm in size) whilst the 0.5-m telescope can detect 39% of the fragments (down to 30 cm size). Due to the large along-track spread of the fragments, a time limit of 1-month post-breakup can be established for a space surveillance system to catalogue the breakup fragments. After this time the angular separation is such that the fragments disperse into the background population, and are no longer distinguishable as originating from a common breakup event.

A search for narrow band signals with SERENDIP II: a progress report

Commensal programs for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), carried out concurrently with conventional radio astronomical observing programs, can be an attractive and cost-effective means of exploring the large multidimensional search space intrinsic to this effort. Our automated commensal system, SERENDIP II, is a high resolution 131,072 channel spectrometer. It searches for 0.49 Hz signals in sequential 64,700 Hz bands of the IF signal from a radio telescope being used for an astronomical observation. Upon detection of a narrow band signal with power above a preset threshold, the frequency, power, time, and telescope direction are recorded for later study. The system has been tested at the Hat Creek Radio Astronomy Observatory 85 ft telescope and the NASA-JPL Deep Space Station (DSS 14) 64 m telescope. It is currently collecting data at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory 300 ft telescope.
