内容記述 | Definitive attitude solutions are supposed to be the most accurate possible. For the Earth Radiation Budget Satellite (ERBS), this has been accomplished by using gyro rates to transform many nonsimultaneous observations to a common time point and then averaging to reduce the effects of observation noise. Rate quality is critical to realizing improved accuracy with this method. Gyro deterioration, which shows up as large observation residuals and discontinuities between contiguous batch solutions, now discourages using the batch approach for ERBS. To address this problem, a simple Kalman filter is tried in place of the batch estimator. The filter works well as long as the attitude is completely observable. During periods without Sun coverage, however, the extrapolated yaw may diverge and then change abruptly when the Sun returns to the sensor field of view. Causes of this behavior are discussed, and some solutions are tried that address the observability aspect of the problem. |
