地月系L1点的月球借力间接转移轨道设计

针对地月系L1点（LL1）的轨道转移问题,在平面圆型限制性三体问题模型下,提出了利用月球借力的间接转移设计方法.转移设计分为地月转移轨道段和月球至LL1流形段.首先,通过改变LL1点初始机动速度,逆向积分LL1点的拟流形,以寻找初始速度、月心会合坐标系下的轨道高度和相位角这三者之间的关系,确定月球—LL1流形段微分改正的初始条件.然后,借助地月系不同转移时间的霍曼转移轨道所对应的近月点高度和相位角的关系,获得使2段转移在近月点相拼接的地月转移轨道段.这种设计方法给出了一系列LL1点间接转移轨道,将此设计结果与其他文献中的转移设计方法进行比较,此间接转移轨道比低能量转移轨道节省时间,比直接转移轨道节约能量.     

RCD太阳帆航天器人工平动点轨道保持与控制

针对航天器平动点轨道保持问题,研究了含有反射率控制设备(RCD)的太阳帆航天器在日地系共线人工平动点处的轨道保持与控制,同时降低因频繁改变航天器姿态所带来的振动问题。首先,基于太阳帆圆型限制性三体问题,计算了RCD型太阳帆人工平动点位置,给出了太阳帆共线人工平动点三阶Halo轨道,并将其作为参考轨道;然后,将太阳帆动力学方程线性化,采用跟踪控制输出的方法对线性模型进行控制;最后,通过合理选择控制变量矩阵,将控制律代入非线性模型中进行轨道保持控制。仿真结果表明,通过控制RCD太阳帆反射率设备参数及姿态角,实现了长时间的Halo轨道保持,同时大幅减小了太阳帆姿态角的改变,从而减小了帆面振动,为太阳帆航天器长期轨道任务的实现提供了良好的理论依据。     

Nonlinear dynamics and station-keeping control of a rotating tethered satellite system in halo orbits

The dynamics of a rotating tethered satellite system （TSS） in the vicinity of libration points are highly nonlinear and inherently unstable. In order to fulfill the station-keep control of the rotating TSS along halo orbits, a nonlinear output tracking control scheme based on the θ- D technique is proposed. Compared with the popular time-variant linear quadratic regulator （LQR） controller, this approach overcomes some limitations such as on-line computations of the algebraic Riccati equation. Besides, the obtained nonlinear suboptimal controller is in a closed form and easy to implement. Numerical simulations show that the TTS trajectories track the periodic reference orbit with low energy consumption in the presence of both tether and initial injection errors. The axis of rotation can keep pointing to an inertial specific object to fulfill an observation mission. In addition, the thrusts required by the controller are in an acceptable range and can be implemented through some low-thrust propulsion devices.     

Autonomous orbit determination using epoch-differenced gravity gradients and starlight refraction

Autonomous orbit determination via integration of epoch-differenced gravity gradients and starlight refraction is proposed in this paper for low-Earth-orbiting satellites operating in GPS-denied environments.Starlight refraction compensates for the significant along-track position error that occurs from only using gravity gradients and benefits from integration in terms of improved accuracy in radial and cross-track position estimates.The between-epoch differencing of gravity gradients is employed to eliminate slowly varying measurement biases and noise near the orbit revolution frequency.The refraction angle measurements are directly used and its Jacobian matrix derived from an implicit observation equation.An information fusion filter based on a sequential extended Kalman filter is developed for the orbit determination.Truth-model simulations are used to test the performance of the algorithm,and the effects of differencing intervals and orbital heights are analyzed.A semi-simulation study using actual gravity gradient data from the Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) combined with simulated starlight refraction measurements is further conducted,and a three-dimensional position accuracy of better than 100 m is achieved.     

单点弹道精度与轨道半长轴远地点高度计算精度的映射关系

在仅使用单点位置、速度信息计算轨道的奈件下,针对轨道半长轴、远地点高度的精度问题,在轨道面内,应用活力公式和二体运动学理论推导得出了轨道计算精度与弹道测量精度间映射关系的解析表达式,并采用数值分析方法给出了不同的位置、速度误差与半长轴、远地点高度最大误差之间的数值关系.仿真结果表明,对于位置误差和速度误差大小分别为100 m和1 m/s的算例,半长轴最大误差和远地点高度最大误差分别约为2 km和4 km.基于此方法,可以将弹道误差传递至轨道参数误差,进一步分析故障误判和漏判概率;也可根据轨道参数精度要求反算弹道测量精度要求,以作为地面测量系统建设的技术依据.     

一种全天时星跟踪器相对惯导的安装阵在线快速估计方法

全天时星跟踪器与捷联惯导组成的惯性/天文组合导航系统具有精度高、自主性强等优点,在飞机、无人机、船舶等领域具有广泛的应用前景。组合导航系统长时间工作中力热变化导致安装矩阵漂移进而影响导航系统精度,全天时星跟踪器由于天空光影响视场小,一次只能观测一颗恒星,无法根据一副星图直接进行安装阵估计。提出了一种基于Levenberg-Marquart （L-M）算法的捷联惯性/天文组合导航系统安装阵在线快速高精度估计方法,利用捷联惯导姿态测量值,将不同时刻的观测星矢量转移到同一时刻同一坐标系中,构造多颗观测星的观测矢量误差与导航星矢量最小二乘目标函数,利用自适应步长的L-M算法对其进行迭代求解,实时得到系统安装矩阵的变化量。试验结果表明,使用该方法后星跟踪器在捷联惯导本体坐标系的输出恒星投影矢量精度提升了1倍以上,在线估计时间优于5 ms,满足用户实时性和高精度要求。
