Embodiment Construction

[0108] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0109] The present invention proposes a small satellite autonomous navigation system and its navigation method based on combined starlight / geomagnetism information, such as figure 1 As shown, the design of the autonomous navigation system is divided into orbit determination and attitude determination. The system state equation is established according to the orbital dynamics model and the attitude dynamics model of the satellite; the starlight vector (L m1 , L m2 and L m3 ), the starlight vector and the geomagnetic vector measured by the magnetometer (B m ), the measured value of the geomagnetic vector (B m ) and the estimated value The difference (ΔB) is used as the system observation; the UKF filter algorithm is used to estimate the orbit and attitude parameters of the satellite to realize the autonomous navigation of the small satellite.

Abstract

The invention provides a small satellite autonomous navigation system based on starlight / geomagnetism integrated information and a navigation method thereof and belongs to the technical field of integrated navigation. The autonomous navigation system comprises a star sensor measuring system, an earth magnetic field measuring system, an orbit determination system and an attitude determination system. The navigation method comprises the following steps of: the establishment of a navigation system state equation, the measurement equation establishment of the navigation system and integrated navigation system information fusion based on UKF(unscented kalman filter). According to the method, a large view filed star sensor is utilized to simultaneously observe starlight vector information of multiple navigational stars, thereby making up the defect caused by overlarge measurement noise of a magnetometer and obtaining high navigation accuracy; based on track and attitude information contained in the measured values of a magnetometer and the star sensor and in comprehensive consideration of influences of various factors, a measurement equation of the system is established, the adaptability and the stability of a filter to measurement noise are improved; therefore, the method is suitable for navigation of a low earth rail small satellite adopting a cheap small autonomous navigation system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a small satellite autonomous navigation scheme design system and a navigation method based on combined starlight / geomagnetism information, and belongs to the technical field of combined navigation. Background technique [0002] Satellite autonomous navigation means that the satellite can determine the position, velocity and attitude of the satellite in real time only by the measurement equipment on the satellite without relying on the ground station, and complete the functions or operations required by the flight mission in orbit. At present, satellites mainly rely on ground stations for tracking and orbit determination. However, due to the large number of satellites in the small satellite network, the use of ground equipment to locate the satellite network has the difficulty of short measurement arcs and many measurement targets. With the continuous increase of small satellites in low and medium orbits, traditional ground meas...
