Book A New Concept in Strapdown Inertial Navigation

Download or read book A New Concept in Strapdown Inertial Navigation written by John E. Bortz (Sr.) and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In conventional strapdown inertial navigation systems, the coordinate transformation matrix differential equation is integrated in the computer of the system. This computation typically requires 30 to 60 percent of the time budget of the computer. A method is presented in this report for significantly reducing the digital computation burden through the use of hybrid computational techniques. Analog correction signals for the non-commutativity phenomenon are fed onto the gyro torque generators causing the gyros to integrate a vector differential equation in the rotation vector argument of the coordinate transformation matrix. The coordinate transformation matrix is then merely evaluated as a matrix function of the rotation vector argument. A 20 to 1 reduction in the digital computer time budget can thus be realized.

Book Attitude Control of a Spacecraft with a Strapdown Inertial Reference System and Onboard Computer

Download or read book Attitude Control of a Spacecraft with a Strapdown Inertial Reference System and Onboard Computer written by John Hrastar and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strapdown inertial reference system and an onboard digital computer can be used to change the attitude of a spacecraft over large angles in an arbitrary direction. A study was conducted with an advanced Orbiting Astronomical Observatory (OAO) using a three-axis control law previously proven globally stable. The control system can reorient the spacecraft to an arbitrary inertial attitude with a single command by operating the three momentum wheels simultaneously. Reorientation, therefore, becomes a simple extension of a hold or pointing mode. The time required for reorientation with this system is considerably shorter than the time required for a series of single-axis slews. The spacecraft attitude and control law are continuously updated by the onboard computer's using information provided by the strapdown inertial reference system. The use of a computer and inertial reference system with characteristics of systems presently under development demonstrates the feasibility of orientation with such a reference system. The basic system is not limited to the OAO but may be adapted for other three-axis-stabilized spacecraft.
