Leo satellites: attitude determination and control components; some linear attitude control techniques
Kaplan, Ceren; Kocaoğlan, Erol; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
In this thesis, application of linear control methods to control the attitude of a Low-Earth Orbit satellite is studied. Attitude control subsystem is first introduced by explaining attitude determination and control components in detail. Satellite dynamic equations are derived and linearized for controller design. Linear controller and linear quadratic regulator are chosen as controllers for attitude control. The actuators used for control are reaction wheels and magnetic torquers. MATLAB-SIMULINK program ...
Leo satellites : dynamic modelling, simulations and some nonlinear attitude control techniques
Karataş, Soner; Kocaoğlan, Erol; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
In this thesis nonlinear control method techniques are investigated to control the attitude of Low Earth Orbit satellites. Nonlinear control methods are compared with linear control methods. Simulations are done using Matlab and Simulink software and BILSAT-1 parameters are used in the simulations. Reaction wheels are used as the actuator.
GPS-based real-time orbit determination of artificial satellites using kalman, particle, unscented kalman and H-infinity filters
Erdoğan, Eren; Karslıoğlu, Mahmut Onur; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2011)
Nowadays, Global Positioning System (GPS) which provide global coverage, continuous tracking capability and high accuracy has been preferred as the primary tracking system for onboard real-time precision orbit determination of Low Earth Orbiters (LEO). In this work, real-time orbit determination algorithms are established on the basis of extended Kalman, unscented Kalman, regularized particle, extended Kalman particle and extended H-infinity filters. Particularly, particle filters which have not been applie...
Imaging-based attitude determination algorithm for small satellites: Design and the preliminary results
Güzel, Mehmet Burak; Söken, Halil Ersin; Tekinalp, Ozan (2020-01-01)
Limitations for small satellite missions encourages researchers and engineers to use on-board equipment for multiple tasks. Thus, both space can be saved and the equipment redundancy can be prevented. For Earth-imaging satellites a prominent equipment that can be used for multiple purposes is the camera. Other than the observation, the taken images can be used as measurements for determining the absolute or relative attitude of the spacecraft. Depending on also the content of the image (e.g. stars, Earth, M...
GPS-Based Real-Time Orbit Determination of Low Earth Orbit Satellites Using Robust Unscented Kalman Filter
Karslıoğlu, Mahmut Onur; Erdogan, Eren; Pamuk, Onur (2017-11-01)
In this research, a novel algorithm for real-time orbit determination (RTOD) is presented using the robust unscented Kalman filter (RUKF) with global positioning system (GPS) group and phase ionospheric correction (GRAPHIC) observables. To increase the reliability of the solution, a robust approach is included in the UKF to cope with the bad, invalid, or degraded measurements leading to the divergence or inaccurate output of the filter. Robustness is provided by making the filter less sensitive to faulty me...
