Experiment Design for System Identification on Satellite Hardware DemonstratorKrantz, Elias January 2018 (has links)
The subject of this thesis covers the process of online parameter estimation of agile satellites. Accurate knowledge of parameters such as moment of inertia and centre of mass play a crucial role in satellite attitude control and pointing performance. Typically, identification of parameters such as these is performed on-ground using post-processing algorithms. This thesis investigates the potential of performing the identification procedures in real-time on-board operating satellites, using only measurements available from typical satellite attitude sensors. The thesis covers the areas of system identification and modelling of spacecraft attitude dynamics. An algorithm based on the Unscented Kalman Filter is developed for online parameter estimation of spacecraft moment of inertia parameters. The proposed method is successfully validated, both through simulation environments, and in practice using Airbus’ satellite hardware demonstrator INTREPID, a three-axis air-bearing table equipped with CMG actuators and typical attitude sensors.
