  1. 1. Initial Orbit Determination of Resident Space Objects From A Passive Optical Imaging System: : Application to Space Situational Awareness

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Jessica McKenna; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Situational Awareness; Space Science; Angles-Only Initial Orbit Determination;

    Abstract : The probability of satellite collisions and disintegrations cluttering the near-Earth orbital environmentis ever-growing. This is especially true for the congested Low Earth Orbit (LEO) regime; once a critical density of objects is reached, a collisional cascading is projected to generate runaway growth of theorbital population.

  3. 2. Design and Implementation of a Rocket Launcher Hybrid Navigation

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Omar Ugolini; [2023]
    Keywords : launch vehicle navigation; delayed Kalman filter; strapdown; navigering av bärraketer; fördröjt Kalman-filter; strapdown;

    Abstract : Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA) a German New Space Startup is developing a three-stage rocket launcher aiming at LEO/SSO orbits. A fundamental responsibility of the GNC team is the development of the rocket navigation algorithm to estimate the attitude, position, and velocity allowing the guidance and control loops to autonomously steer the rocket.

  4. 3. Assisted GNSS Positioning using State Space Corrections

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Oskar Philipsson; [2023]
    Keywords : positioning; GNSS; SSR; EKF; sensor fusion;

    Abstract : Classical GNSS based positioning has accuracy limitations due to many sources oferror. The error sources range from clock errors and orbit errors toerrors due to variations in atmospheric propagation delays. One way to improve GNSSpositioning is to generate real time corrections using a GNSS reference network. READ MORE

  5. 4. Evaluation of Geopositioning Using Frequency Responses From Radio Propagation Measurements

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jessica Ye; Johan Lesko; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Satellite reliant navigation systems may struggle in urban environments as tall buildings mayobstruct necessary direct lines of sight with satellites. There have been multiple studiesexamining how WIFI fingerprinting may be used for indoor positioning. READ MORE

  6. 5. Improving the guidance, navigation and control design of the KNATTE platform

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Lars Lundström; [2023]
    Keywords : Multisensor Data Fusion; Nonlinear Kalman Filter; Neural Network;

    Abstract : For complex satellite missions that rely on agile and high-precision manoeuvres, the low-friction aspect of the space environment is a critical component in understanding the attitude control dynamics of the spacecraft. The Kinesthetic Node and Autonomous Table-Top Emulator (KNATTE) is a three-degree-of-freedom frictionless vehicle that serves as the foundation of a multipurpose platform for real-time spacecraft hardware-in-the-loop experiments, and allows emulation of these conditions in two dimensions with the purpose of validating various guidance, navigation, and control algorithms.
