«Luna-Glob» spacecraft attitude motion control in the mode of the constant solar orientation
Abstract:
The preprint deals with the development of the attitude motion algorithms for Luna-Glob spacecraft (SC) to construct and maintain a constant solar orientation mode (CSO) during the Earth-Moon flight. The main requirement for CSO mode is to put SC in position relative to the Sun which provides the best illumination of solar panels for maximum electricity flow onboard.
Control algorithms and programs are developed, which allow conducting the statistical analysis for evaluation of algorithms performance at different initial SC orientation relative to the Sun and different initial angular velocity.
