内容記述 | The NanoSat constellation concept mission proposes simultaneous operation of multiple swarms of as many as 22 identical 10 kg spacecraft per swarm. The various orbits in a NanoSat swarm vary from 3x5 to 3x42 R(sub e) in geometry. In this report the unique flight dynamics issues of this constellation satellite mission design are addressed. Studies include orbit design, orbit determination, and error analysis. A preliminary survey determined the orbital parameters that would yield a 100 minute shadow condition maximum while providing adequate ground station access for three ground stations. |
