Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for calculating light pressure perturbation of an antenna satellite. Background Art

[0002] With the dramatic increase in global communication needs and the rapid development of space technology, building a high-performance communication infrastructure has become a top priority. In this context, large satellite antennas, as a core component of space infrastructure, have become increasingly important. These antennas not only support data and communication services around the earth, but are also key technologies for achieving global wide-area coverage, deep space exploration missions, and disaster emergency response. In addition, with the continuous expansion of earth observation, space science research, and commercial satellite services, the capabilities of large satellite antennas in data collection and other aspects have become the key to promoting progress in these fields. By improving the capacity and stability of space communication networks, large antennas enable satellites to process and transmit massive amounts of data, supporting complex scientific research missions and commercial operations. From climate monitoring to astrophysical research, from global positioning systems to broadband Internet services, the role of large satellite antennas is everywhere, and the innovation and application of their technology is directly related to the operating efficiency of all walks of life and the well-being of all mankind. The development of large satellite antenna technology is not only a reflection of the country's scientific and technological strength, but also an indispensable part of the global communication development trend. As the core of satellite antenna design and control, dynamic models play a vital role in improving mission success, reducing risks, and optimizing orbital operations.

[0003] For large space satellites equipped with large structures such as antennas, the accuracy of the dynamic model becomes an important factor in ensuring their structural stability and functionality. Due to the uniqueness and complexity of the structure of such satellites and their large surface area, solar pressure becomes the main factor of their perturbation. Traditional solar pressure calculations usually set the satellite surface mass ratio to a constant value. Although this simplifies the design and calculation in some aspects, the fixed surface mass ratio also means that the satellite's sensitivity to solar pressure is also fixed, sacrificing the accuracy of the dynamic model. Overly simplified models may not be able to accurately predict and respond to the dynamic conditions actually encountered, which may bring additional challenges to orbit maintenance and attitude control. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of inaccurate calculation of solar radiation pressure of large satellite antennas, which leads to poor accuracy of satellite orbit prediction and attitude control, and propose a sub-unit solar radiation pressure perturbation calculation method for antenna satellites.

[0005] A method for calculating the perturbation of light pressure of a satellite antenna comprises the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: In the ECI coordinate system, determine the insolation factor based on the positional relationship between the sun, the earth, and the antenna satellite;

[0007] Step 2: Calculate the light pressure projection area of ​​the satellite;

[0008] Step 3, calculating the light pressure perturbation force on each part according to the exposure factor of step 1 and the light pressure projection area of ​​step 2;

[0009] Step 4: Determine whether the set time length has been reached. If not, repeat steps 1 to 3. Otherwise, end.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0011] 1. The present invention aims to solve the problem that the large satellite antenna structure is complex and it is difficult to accurately calculate its light pressure perturbation. By decomposing the satellite into several key units and calculating the solar light pressure received by each unit separately, the overall light pressure perturbation can be predicted more accurately. This method allows the specific attributes of each unit (such as area, material, shape and orientation) to be considered in detail, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the overall model.

[0012] 2. The present invention is conducive to improving the accuracy of orbit prediction and attitude control of satellites and spacecraft. By calculating the influence of solar pressure with high precision, the accuracy of orbit prediction can be significantly improved, the attitude control capability can be enhanced, and the use of fuel can be optimized. This is especially critical for tasks that require high-precision pointing, such as earth observation, astronomical observation, and intersatellite communication. In addition, the use of solar pressure for orbit and attitude control can also reduce the consumption of propellant and extend the life of the satellite, thereby improving the economy and sustainability of the mission.

[0013] 3. The present invention is conducive to improving mission planning and execution. High-precision solar pressure calculations help to formulate more reasonable mission plans, especially in satellite formation flying and collaborative observation missions. For long-term missions, accurate solar pressure models help predict and respond to long-term orbital drift and attitude changes, and improve mission success rates. At the same time, accurate assessment and prediction of orbital changes caused by solar pressure can help enhance risk management and collision avoidance, improve the accuracy of collision risk assessment, and plan effective collision avoidance maneuvers to reduce collision risks in space environments.

[0014] 4. The present invention is beneficial to improving the quality of scientific experiments and data, especially for scientific satellites equipped with precision instruments, and can correct small disturbances caused by solar pressure to ensure the accuracy and reliability of data.

[0062] When the sun is at the vernal equinox, for any incident angle β of sunlight, calculate the light pressure projection area of ​​each sun-receiving surface of the rectangular structure; the expression is:

[0063] S WX =l×w×|sinβ|+w×h×|cosβ| (6)

[0064] In the formula, S WX It represents the light pressure projection area of ​​the star unit in the illumination direction.

[0065] The other steps and parameters are the same as those in Specific Implementations 1 to 6-1.

[0066] Specific implementation eight: This implementation differs from any one of specific implementations one to seven in that: in step 24, the antenna unit is regarded as a parabolic structure, and due to the complexity of the parabolic structure, the light pressure projection area of ​​the antenna unit in the illumination direction is obtained;

[0067] The specific process is:

[0068] 1) The antenna surface can be modeled as a parabola, which is a special form of a quadratic surface. The general equation of a quadratic surface is:

[0069] a0+a1x”+a2y”+a3z”+a4x”y”+a5y”z”+a6z”x”+a7x” 2 +a8y” 2 +a9z” 2 =0 (7)

[0070] In the formula, a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7, a8, and a9 represent parameters; x', y', and z' represent the coordinate values ​​of the three axes in the Cartesian coordinate system;

[0071] The Cartesian coordinate system x"y"z" is:

[0073] The surface equation contains 10 unknown parameters;

[0074] Parameter a0 determines the position offset of the surface;

[0075] Parameters a1 to a3 are linear terms that affect the surface translation;

[0076] Parameters a4 to a6 represent the correlation between the two directions and affect the shear effect between the two directions;

[0079] Finite element software is used to fit the general equation of the quadratic surface (Formula 7), and the parabolic equation of the antenna is obtained as follows:

[0083] In the formula, θ represents the direction of sunlight;

[0084] The solar susceptibility force is mainly determined by the projected area of ​​the satellite exposed to the incident sunlight. The effective irradiated area is related to the solar incident angle θ. When θ = 0°, the sunlight directly illuminates the side of the antenna, resulting in the smallest projected area. When θ = 90°, the sunlight directly illuminates the antenna surface, resulting in the largest projected area. The incident angle changes continuously with the movement of the geosynchronous satellite and the sun, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0132] The other steps and parameters are the same as those in Specific Implementation Methods 1 to 9.

[0133] Example:

[0134] According to the first embodiment, the algorithm of the present invention is experimented in a simulation environment. Using the projection area calculation method of the macroscopic model and the high-precision analytical light pressure perturbation dynamic model, the relationship between the projection area and the incident angle is obtained through simulation analysis, such as Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2, the two methods show similar trends, with the maximum error reaching 1000m at 30°. 2The present invention is more scientific and rigorous, and more in line with the actual situation of light pressure perturbation. On March 21 and April 21, the light pressure projection area of ​​the antenna satellite was simulated for 24 hours using a macroscopic model and a high-precision analytical light pressure perturbation model. Figure 5 On March 21, 2020, the maximum and minimum projection areas of the antenna surface calculated by the two models were equal, with a maximum difference of 1314.7m. 2 The difference between the entire antenna satellite and the antenna surface is very small, mainly due to the influence of the satellite body and the solar wing, indicating that their shading area is negligible. After one month of in-orbit operation, the maximum difference between the two models is 1314.8m 2 , which is not much different from March 21. Although the maximum projected area on the antenna surface is equal on both dates, the difference in the minimum value is about 694.2m 2 This shows that as the position of the sun changes along the ecliptic plane, the photoperturbation dynamics of the antenna satellite becomes more complex, increasing the error in the macroscopic model. In contrast, the high-precision analytical photoperturbation dynamics model improves the calculation accuracy.

[0135] Figure 6 This is the perturbation force and torque diagram of the light pressure obtained from the on-orbit simulation of the vernal equinox. The satellite has a roll angle of 6°. At the beginning of the simulation, the earth, the satellite and the sun are in a straight line, and the Z axis of the satellite always points to the center of the earth. From 6 to 18 hours, the angle between the Z axis and the solar radiation pressure is less than 90°, the perturbation force is positive, and it reaches a peak at 12 hours. From 18 hours to 0 hours and then to 6 hours, the angle is greater than 90°, so the perturbation force is negative, reaching a peak at 0 / 24 hours. From 0 to 12 hours, the satellite moves from aphelion to perihelion, and the solar radiation pressure behaves as resistance along the velocity direction (X axis), which is a negative value. At 6 hours, the solar radiation pressure is the smallest because the incident angle of the antenna surface is about 90°. From 18 to 0 hours and then to 6 hours, the satellite moves from perihelion to aphelion, and the solar radiation pressure along the velocity direction (X axis) is a positive thrust. Since the flip angle of the satellite along the Z axis is 6°, the solar radiation pressure will not pass through the center of mass, thus generating a Z-axis torque. The solar radiation pressure curve shows an equal-length shadow effect around 0 hours.

[0136] The present invention may also have many other embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make various corresponding changes and modifications based on the present invention, but these corresponding changes and modifications should all fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present invention.
