Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a dual-satellite multi-loop cooperative control method based on a non-contact load vibration isolation system, belonging to the field of control technology. Background Art

[0002] Space missions, such as those involving space telescopes, laser communications, and high-precision Earth observation, place extremely high demands on the accuracy, stability, and agility of control systems for space-based satellite observation platforms. Currently, two main factors hinder the high-performance control accuracy, stability, and agility of satellite platforms: 1) Low-frequency vibrations (0.1-10 Hz) of flexible attachments such as solar panels, combined with high-speed rotation of onboard rotating components, payload scanning mechanism rotation, stepping motion of large controllable component drive mechanisms, thruster ignition during orbital maneuvers, mechanical motion of thermal control components, stimulated vibrations of large flexible structures, and thermal deformation disturbances induced by alternating hot and cold temperatures during entry and exit from shadows, induce a low-amplitude, high-frequency flutter response (10-200 Hz) in the spacecraft, severely impacting the platform's pointing accuracy and stability. 2) The high speed and dynamic delays of the spacecraft during motion affect pointing accuracy and agility.

[0003] In order to solve the impact of the above two factors on the satellite platform, adding a payload pointing control system with vibration isolation, vibration suppression and rapid maneuverability between the satellite platform and the payload to form a multi-level composite control system for the entire satellite has become a new option. Summary of the Invention

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] A multi-loop collaborative control method for twin-body satellites based on a non-contact load vibration isolation system can be used for a high-precision, rapid maneuvering pointing control system for twin-body satellites. It mainly solves the problem of high-precision, rapid maneuvering pointing control of twin-body satellites based on a non-contact load vibration isolation system under the condition that there is a vibration disturbance source in the platform cabin.

[0022] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Figure 1The schematic diagram of the double-body satellite based on the non-contact load vibration isolation system is shown in Figure 1. A is the satellite platform cabin, B is the non-contact load vibration isolation system, and C is the load cabin. Figure 2 As shown in FIG, the non-contact load vibration isolation system consists of four symmetrically installed magnetic bearings, which connect the satellite platform cabin and the payload cabin.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the entire control system is divided into a satellite platform attitude control loop, a follow-up control loop for the payload to follow the satellite platform, and a high-frequency vibration suppression loop in the payload cabin, which work together to achieve the vibration isolation of the payload and high-precision and rapid pointing adjustment requirements.

[0025] Satellite platform attitude control loop: Utilize attitude measurement sensors such as the platform cabin star sensor and gyroscope to obtain platform cabin attitude measurement information, design the platform cabin's high-precision attitude maneuvering control law, thereby obtaining the desired instructions for the attitude control actuator, and ultimately outputting the control torque through attitude control actuators such as flywheels.

[0026] The follow-up control loop of the payload-following satellite platform: According to the relative posture dynamic model and magnetic equation of the float and stator, the relative posture and position measurement information is solved based on the relative position sensor of the magnetic levitation bearing float and stator. Combined with the attitude change of the platform cabin, the relative posture controller is divided into a combination of feedback controller and feedforward controller. A second-order full-drive linear quadratic regulation control method is designed to obtain the optimal virtual control law, and finally the relative posture current control law is obtained, which is the follow-up control current of the magnetic bearing, meeting the high-precision relative posture control requirements under maneuvering conditions, ensuring that the relative posture of the two cabins is close to 0 and there is no collision between the two cabins.

[0027] The medium- and high-frequency vibration suppression loop in the payload cabin: The absolute velocity sensor of the payload platform is used to obtain the medium- and high-frequency vibration measurement information of the payload platform (including the three-axis inertial angular velocity and translational velocity), and the medium- and high-frequency active vibration suppression current control law is designed. The medium- and high-frequency active vibration suppression current control law works synergistically with the relative posture current control law of the payload platform cabin to jointly achieve the control goals of high precision and high stability.

[0028] Since the mid- and high-frequency vibration suppression controller has the shortest control period, typically reaching 1000Hz, while the servo control loop has a relatively moderate control period of 100Hz, and the satellite platform attitude control loop has the longest control period of 10Hz, the dual-body satellite multi-loop coordinated control system is a multi-timescale system. Therefore, based on singular perturbation theory, the three loops are coupled to maintain the state of the slow-varying system unchanged in the fast-varying system, while the fast-varying parameters in the slow-varying system are equivalent. The three loops work together to achieve high-precision and high-stability control.

[0029] (1) The payload follows the satellite platform's follow-up control loop: The mass of the payload cabin is defined as MC and the moment of inertia is J C The relative attitude angle between the payload cabin coordinate system and the platform cabin coordinate system is χ CD ∈R 3 , platform cabin center of mass O D To the center of mass of the payload compartment O C The vector is r CD ∈R 3 , the angular velocity of the payload cabin relative to the platform cabin is ω CD ∈R 3 , the relative posture state of the payload platform cabin x1=[r CD T χ CD T ] T , the relative position change variable of the payload platform cabin is e1=x1-x d , where x d ∈R 6 It is expected that the relative posture of the two cabins will be maintained.

[0030] definition M f =diag(M C ,J C ),ω D is the three-axis attitude angular velocity of the platform cabin in the inertial system, is the three-axis attitude angular acceleration of the platform cabin in the inertial system, r D is the center of mass of the Earth in the inertial system O N To the center of mass of the payload compartment O C The kinematic and dynamic equations of the relative posture error of the payload platform cabin can be written as

[0031]

[0032] in, is the coupling term between the platform cabin attitude and relative attitude, N(e1,r D ) is the coupling term between the platform cabin orbital motion and relative position, is the term related to the angular acceleration of the platform cabin attitude. The 8 magnetic forces generated by the 4 magnetic bearings, C A is the conversion matrix from 8 magnetic forces to 6-DOF forces / torques, F C is the conversion matrix from the 6-DOF force / torque at the center of the magnetic levitation mechanism to the center of mass of the payload compartment.

[0033] Since the coil current adopts differential form, the linear expression of the i-th single electromagnetic force is:

[0034] f Li (Δδ i ,i ci)=k1i ci +k2Δδ i

[0035] Where: k1 is the current stiffness coefficient, k2 is the displacement stiffness coefficient, Δδ i is the change of the ith magnetic levitation gap, and the output current of the ith magnetic levitation controller is i ci , i=1……8. Define the control current of the magnetic levitation system I=[i c1 i c2 i c3 i c4 i c5 i c6 i c7 i c8 ] T , the maglev system gap change Δδ = [Δδ1 Δδ2 Δδ3 Δδ4 Δδ5 Δδ6 Δδ7 Δδ8] T ,but

[0036] F L =k1I+k2Δδ

[0037] The relationship between the gap change and the relative position change of the load platform cabin can be obtained by deduction:

[0038] e1=R x2d Δδ, Δδ=R d2x e1

[0039] Among them, R x2d is the conversion matrix from the gap change of the maglev system to the relative position change of the payload platform cabin, R d2x The conversion matrix from the relative posture change of the payload platform cabin to the gap change of the magnetic levitation system can be used to calculate the relative posture and position measurement information using the relative position sensor between the magnetic levitation bearing float and the stator, and further design the relative posture controller:

[0040]

[0041] Where G1 is the control input matrix, v is the virtual control input, I cf is the current feedback control law, I cq As the current feedforward control law, the second-order all-wheel drive linear model of the relative posture of the payload platform cabin can be obtained as

[0042]

[0043] The second-order full-drive linear quadratic regulation control method is adopted, and the relative posture error and error speed are selected as the state variables e=[e1 T e2 T ] T , the system can be transformed into

[0044]

[0045] Among them, the system matrices A and B are

[0046]

[0047] The optimal performance index is selected as

[0048]

[0049] Where Q∈R 12×12 and R c =R 6×6 The weighted matrices are semi-positive definite and positive definite respectively. By selecting appropriate Q and R, the system steady-state error can be reduced to meet the control accuracy requirements and obtain better dynamic response within the range allowed by the actuator.

[0050] Get the optimal controller

[0051] v * =-R c -1 B T Pe

[0052] Where P is the only positive definite solution of the Riccati matrix algebraic equation

[0053] A T P+PA-PB T R c -1 BP+Q=0

[0054] Thus we get the virtual optimal controller v * , then the relative posture current control law It meets the requirements of high-precision relative attitude control under maneuvering conditions, ensuring that the relative attitude of the two cabins is close to 0 and there is no collision between the two cabins.

[0055] (2) For the satellite platform attitude control loop, the platform cabin inertial angular velocity ω is obtained using attitude measurement sensors such as the platform cabin gyroscope D , the star sensor obtains attitude quaternion information q D , the control law of the attitude maneuver tracking control loop of the platform cabin is designed as

[0056] u D =-k d ω D -k p q D

[0057] Among them, u DThe high-precision attitude maneuver control law is designed to obtain the desired instruction of the attitude control actuator, and finally output the control torque through the attitude control actuator such as the flywheel. d and k p is a positive definite control matrix to be designed.

[0058] (3) For the high-frequency vibration suppression circuit of the payload cabin, the three-axis inertial velocity ξ of the high-frequency payload cabin is measured by the absolute velocity sensor installed on the payload platform. C =[ω C T v C T ] T ,ω C =[ω C1 ω C2 ω C2 ] T is the angular velocity of the medium and high frequency payload cabin in the inertial system, ω C1 ω C2 ω C2 are the three components of angular velocity, v C =[v C1 v C2 v C2 ] T is the translational velocity of the medium and high frequency payload cabin in the inertial system, v C1 v C2 v C2 For the three components of speed, design the current control law for medium and high frequency active vibration suppression

[0059] I g =c m G1 -1 ξ C

[0060] where c m The damping matrix to be designed is the medium and high frequency active vibration suppression current control law and the relative posture current control law of the payload platform cabin work together to achieve the control goal of high precision and high stability.
