Abstract

本申请涉及空间环境探测技术领域,特别涉及一种矢量磁强计与星敏感器坐标系传递矩阵的在轨定标方法及系统。方法包括:针对每次旋转机动,将磁强计输出磁场矢量绘制成三维散点图并识别稳定弧段,对稳定弧段原始磁场数据去均值后奇异值分解,提取最小奇异值对应矢量作为该稳定弧段旋转轴在磁强计坐标系的单位方向向量,合并同次机动下所有稳定弧段的该向量;同次机动下,在惯性坐标系选非零恒定矢量为参考矢量,利用星敏感器测量序列将其转换至星敏感器坐标系,对所得序列去均值后奇异值分解,提取最小奇异值对应向量作为旋转轴在星敏感器坐标系的单位方向向量;基于两坐标系下的旋转轴单位方向向量求解传递矩阵,完成在轨定标。
