Abstract

The invention provides a testing device and a method applicable for spacecraft high-stability pointing control. The testing device comprises a base, an air bearing, an instrument platform, a spacecraft pointing unit, a spacecraft attitude control unit, a platform data instruction transmitting-receiving system, a mark point, a target measuring head unit, a reflection prism, a counteractive momentum wheel system, an image processing unit, a photoelectric auto-collimator, a laser tracker, an off-platform data instruction transmitting-receiving system and a camera. According to the device and the method, the characteristics of a micro-interference moment environment are simulated by fully using the air bearing; as the high-precision position and attitude measuring techniques of equipment such as the image measuring unit, the laser tracker and the photoelectric auto-collimator are combined, the goal of spacecraft high-stability pointing control test can be realized; the precision is high; the stability is good; and the engineering realization is facilitated. The device and the method can be used for a high-precision pointing control test on spacecraft such as various high-precision weather and military reconnaissance satellites and space-based offense and defense platforms.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-stability pointing control test device and method suitable for space vehicles. Background technique [0002] Modern space missions put forward high requirements on the high stability of the aircraft pointing, especially for the space vehicle, its pointing accuracy is often the most critical technical index of the system, and the expensive development cost and special operating environment of the aircraft require that it must be carried out before launch. Sufficient ground tests are needed to ensure the success of the mission, so the research on space vehicle high-stability pointing control tests has important application prospects and value. [0003] The air bearing table relies on compressed air to form an air film between the air bearing and the bearing seat, and installs the payload through the instrument platform to float the simulated table body, so as to realize the relative motion condition of approximately fricti...
