  1. MAXIM Josephine San Dave Olney 18 August, 1999 Attitude Control System

  2. Assessment • Appears to be Feasible • Requirements • Coarse Pointing baselined on NGST • Future technology • Control modes • Area of concerns NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  3. Science Requirements • Pointing Requirements on Optical Spacecraft ACS • Accuracy (1 s) : • Course (with tracker) Pitch/Yaw ± 2.0 arcsec; Roll 20 arcsec • Fine (long term drift) pitch/yaw ± 0.5 marcsec • Jitter • Coarse ± 0.1 arcsec • Fine ± 0.1 marcsec • Pointing Requirements on Detector Spacecraft ACS • Stability (1 s) : Pitch/Yaw ± 20 arcsec; Roll 20 arcsec • Lateral Stability (1 s) : 3 mm NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  4. Optics ACS Mode Scenarios • Rate null/Sun Acquisition: null rates, point arrays normal to sun • Sensors : Coarse Sun Sensor, Gyro • Actuator: options: large wheel/small wheel + good PAF/thruster • Acquisition: acquire stars to establish reference attitude • Sensors: HD301 Star tracker(ST), Fine Sun Sensor (FSS), gyro (ring laser) • Actuator: same as rate null/sun acquisition • Science: inertial pointing • Sensors: coarse pointing - ST, FSS, gyro; Fine pointing - instrument • Actuator: options:/large wheel with thruster/PPT/small wheel with PPT • Slew: eigenaxis rotation capability • Sensor: gyro • Actuator: options: wheel/PPT • Safehold: independent safe mode, same as sun acquisition NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  5. Detector ACS mode scenarios • Rate null/Sun Acquisition: null rates, point arrays normal to sun • Sensor same as Optics spacecraft; actuator can be wheel or thruster • Initial Acquisition: acquire stars to establish reference attitude • Sensors same ad Optics spacecraft’s acquisition; actuator same as sun acquisiton • Science: inertial pointing • Pointing: same as optics spacecraft coarse pointing • Lateral control: laser and PPT • Slew: Acquire optics spacecraft, acquire new target • Sensor: gyro • Actuator: wheel or thruster • Delta V - Re-acquire new target position • Safehold: independent safe mode, same as sun acquisition NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  6. Actuator Selection Criteria • Quantization - Science requirement • Disturbance torque - Science requirement • Torque Capability - slew and solar torque • Momentum capability • Tip off rate • Solar pressure at drift orbit • Solar force is about 0.2 m N • Assuming 0.1 meter cp offset for optics spacecraft, Solar torque is 20 micro Nm • In one day the momentum build up is about 1.8 Nms NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  7. Optics - sun acq/rate null • Large wheel (80 Nms) • Tip off rate less than 0.05 deg/sec • Imbalance torque disturbance • Weight and Power • Small wheel (40 Nms)+ PAF • Assuming with good PAF, tip off rate less than 0.01 deg/sec • 40 Nms wheel • Weight and Power • Thruster • PPT is not sufficient to null the rate (0.01 deg/sec) and acquire the sun • hydrazine - Sloshing problem • Cold gas - only choice NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  8. PPT only Better quantization* No need to unload momentum* No heritage yet, EO1 will have one axis PPT control as test Need 12 PPT with no redundancy* Mass, power, cost Limited number (10 million) of firing (fire every 3 s for 1 year) Plume impingement Electro-magnetic contamination Need to further investigate items without ‘*’ Wheel with isolation; thruster for momentum unloading Quantization Need to unload momentum* Has heritage* Longer life time* With four wheel provides redundancy* Mass, power, cost Imbalance torque disturbance Same as PPT last item Optics - SCIENCE NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  9. Optics - Science (con’t) • Small wheel with isolation /PPT • Wheel for pointing, PPT for momentum unloading • Finer quantization of wheel • Extend PPT life time • Wheel for coarse pointing, PPT for fine pointing and momentum unloading • Better quantization for fine pointing • Extend PPT lifetime • Depend on the actuator induced disturbance and other studies NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  10. Optics - Slew • Wheel • Less than 6 hours to slew 45 degree • Remain a zero-momentum system • PPT • 12 hours to slew 45 degree • After the slew, the system momentum may not be zero NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  11. Technology • New Generation Integrated Wheel • Wheel and electronic all integrated • Low noise, low imbalance torque, low power • Spartan 400 series and Triana heritage • New Generation Star Tracker • NGST heritage • Accuracy 1.35 arcsec accuracy per star • Pulse Plasma Thruster • As three axis fine control actuator NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  12. Concerns • PPT concerns • Plume impingement, EMI, Life time • Maintain a zero momentum system • A better solar torque estimation • Tracking strategy of optics and detector spacecraft • Fine pointing Strategies • Operation scenarios post separation • Null rate before separate two spacecraft • Rate after two spacecraft separation • What is the rate after two spacecraft separation NASA/GSFC/IMDC

  13. Component (wheel option) NASA/GSFC/IMDC
