Spacecraft attitude and rate estimation using the SDRE method Choukroun, Danıel; Tekinalp, Ozan (null; 2013-07-05)
Orbit transfer optimization of a spacecraft with impulsive thrusts using genetic algorithm Yılmaz, Ahmet; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012) This thesis addresses the orbit transfer optimization problem of a spacecraft. The optimal orbit transfer is the process of altering the orbit of a spacecraft with minimum propellant consumption. The spacecrafts are needed to realize orbit transfer to reach, change or keep its orbit. The spacecraft may be a satellite or the last stage of a launch vehicle that is operated at the exo-atmospheric region. In this study, a genetic algorithm based orbit transfer method has been developed. The applicability of gen...
Orbit determination strategy and verification for geosynchronous satellites Köker, Abdulkadir; Tekinalp, Ozan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019) In this thesis, the batch and sequential orbit determination procedures for the geostationary satellites are presented. The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of the angle only and standard angle-range measurements on orbit determination accuracy. The effect of various factors on estimation accuracy such as measurement frequency, observation duration, and number of observation sites are investigated using the simulated measurement data. Estimation methods namely, nonlinear least square, extended ...
Mission Experience for Spinning Spacecraft Attitude Filtering with Spin Parameters Söken, Halil Ersin; Asamura, Kazushi; Nakamura, Yosuke; Takashima, Takeshi; Shinohara, Iku (2019-06-21) JAXA's Arase Spacecraft, which is formerly known as Exploration of Energization and Radiation in Geospace (ERG), was launched on 20 December 2016 and has been in orbit for almost 3 years. The spacecraft is spin-stabilized. Its mission is exploring how relativistic electrons in the radiation belts are generated during space storms. Two on-ground attitude determination algorithms are used for the mission: a conventional simple algorithm that inherits from old missions and an advanced algorithm that is newly d...
ORBIT TRANSFER OF AN EARTH ORBITING SOLAR SAIL CUBESAT Atas, Omer; Tekinalp, Ozan (2017-02-09) Propelling a spacecraft by using solar radiation pressure is examined in the context of orbital maneuvers. A locally optimal steering law to progressively change number of selected orbital elements together is addressed. An Earth centered cubesat satellite with solar sail is used as an example. The proper attitude maneuver mechanization is proposed to harvest highest solar radiation force in the desired direction for Earth orbiting satellites. The satellite attitude control is realized using to-go quaternio...
