This project investigates two problems related to satellites that contain cold gas thrusters and reaction wheels. The first problem concerns the estimation of the thruster force response to a pulse command. An optimal data integration method is developed and implemented to estimate the thruster force output from a number of noisy sensors. The second problem occurs when the output force vector of a thruster mounted on a satellite is misaligned with the centre of mass with the satellite. As a result a disturbance torque is generated on the satellite during thruster operation. 2006-11-16T06:27:45Z 2010-06-01T08:45:39Z 2006-11-16T06:27:45Z 2010-06-01T08:45:39Z 2006-03 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/2306 en_ZA University of Stellenbosch 2339796 bytes application/pdf application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch |
