| 内容記述 | This paper extends the analysis of attitude determination accuracy introduced at the 1975 American Astronautical Society/American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AAS/AIAA) Astrodynamics Conference. It contains more generalized expressions, new geometrical relations, and additional applications. A complete set of attitude accuracy equations for both arc-length (portion of a great circle) and rotation-angle (dihedral angle) measurements are presented. These expressions can then be applied to determine the geometrical conditions under which a specified accuracy can be achieved by using either the attitude or a selected reference-vector direction as the independent variable. Representative applications to attitude determination accuracy studies and launch window analyses are discussed. The clear physical interpretation and straightforward graphical procedures greatly simplify mission analysis, maneuver planning, hardware configuration studies, and interpretation of results. |
