Abstract
The article is devoted to the development and application of control moment gyroscopes used for active triaxial attitude control of spacecraft. These gyroscopes belong to the class of inertial actuators, which also includes flywheel control motors, gyro dampers, and passive gyrostabilizers. A distinctive feature of control moment gyroscopes (CMG) is the presence of special drives that control the rotation of the gyroscope relative to its suspension axes. By regulating the speed of this rotation, the drive creates the required control moment. The paper describes the main development stages of Russian CMG and systems based on them, the features of their design and architecture, application issues and development trends.
期刊介绍:
Gyroscopy and Navigation is an international peer reviewed journal that covers the following subjects: inertial sensors, navigation and orientation systems; global satellite navigation systems; integrated INS/GNSS navigation systems; navigation in GNSS-degraded environments and indoor navigation; gravimetric systems and map-aided navigation; hydroacoustic navigation systems; navigation devices and sensors (logs, echo sounders, magnetic compasses); navigation and sonar data processing algorithms. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries in the English or Russian language.
