Spin reorientation maneuver for spinning spacecraft |
摘要 |
A method for controlling reorientation of a spacecraft's spin from a minor axis spin bias to a desired major axis spin after spin transition. A control system monitors rotational rates about the principal axes to detect a separatrix crossing of a polhode path therein. Controlled thruster firings resulting from spin rate information successively decrease and increase a characteristic parameter and capture the spacecraft during a spin transition to a desired major bias orientation. It is possible to monitor only omega 1 and omega 3 in an alternate embodiment.
