Problems solved by technology

However, for heavy space-borne deployable antennas, the size of the antenna structure is large and the mass is heavy. The mass of the antenna is the main weight of the whole star. At the same time, the star or star simulator as the antenna installation base has limited rigidity. The antenna installation base The influence of stiffness on antenna deployment cannot be ignored. During the antenna gravity unloading process, the posture of the antenna mounting base will also change accordingly, which will affect the unloading effect and ultimately affect the deployment performance of the antenna.
[0007] At present, there is no explanation or report for the technology similar to the present invention in the field of space technology, and no similar information has been collected at home and abroad.

Abstract

A theodolite is used to measure the change amount of the attitude of a heavy spaceborne deployable antenna during ground test before and after gravity unloading, the change is reversely preset to obtain the initial pose of the antenna under the stiffness condition of a mounting base, and gravity unloading is carried out to balance the gravity in order to eliminate the influences of the stiffness of the antenna mounting base on the gravity balance of the antenna, so the weightless environment condition of the on-orbit deployment is well simulated, and the deploying performance of the antenna is guaranteed. The ground test gravity balance method of the heavy spaceborne deployable antenna belongs to the technical field of space, and is provided to solve a problem that no effective on-orbit weightless environment condition simulation of the gravity unloading, caused by the influences of the stiffness of the mounting base on the heavy spaceborne deployable antenna during the ground test, finally affects the deploying performance of the antenna.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of space technology, in particular to a gravity balance method applied to the ground test of a heavy space-borne deployable antenna of a satellite. Background technique [0002] Limited by the space size of the launch vehicle, large heavy-duty antennas applied to satellites generally adopt the method of being folded and folded on the satellite platform during launch, and unfolded in orbit after entering orbit. In order to ensure the reliability of the antenna deployment in orbit, the antenna deployment test must be carried out on the ground. However, the satellite is in a zero-gravity state in orbit, while the ground is in a gravity environment. Therefore, the gravity unloading technology is a difficult problem that must be overcome in the ground test of spacecraft products. [0003] At present, there are two most commonly used gravity unloading technologies at home and abroad, one is the suspension type and the oth...
