Abstract
The paper summarizes the results of the research on angular motion dynamics carried out by the team of the authors and some problems of attitude control of nanosatellites (NS). The features of CubeSat NS passive motion dynamics are described. Conditions for the possible emergence of resonance modes are studied and discussed. Recommendations are given allowing the requirements for mass-inertia characteristics and initial conditions of NS motion to be formulated at the design stage, aimed at the NS stable motion with regard to the required equilibrium position for a wide range of orbital altitudes. Algorithms for reorientation and stabilization of NS motion are proposed based on the solution of the inverse problem of dynamics and selection of optimal nominal attitude control programs. The results of this work are implemented in practice and may be useful to the developers of small spacecraft.
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.
