  1. 1. Definition and evaluation of a system for measuring local geomagnetic variations : Autonomous station for magnetic measurements

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

    Author : Viktor Olsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Local Geomagnetic Variations; Fluxgate Magnetometer; Space Weather; Solar Wind; Magnetic Measurements; Variometer; Solar Activity.; Lokala geomagnetiska variationer; Fluxgate-Magnetometer; Rymdväder; Solvinden; Magnetiska Mätningar; Variometer; Solaktivitet.;

    Abstract : Earth is under constant influence of the Sun and phenomena driven by the solar wind that may affect man-made technology. These events are summarized under the concept of space weather. This creates variations in Earth’s magnetic field and nearby space. Space weather can affect power grids, gas pipelines and also have effects on human health. READ MORE

  3. 2. Characterisation of Satellite Onboard Magnetometer for MIST

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

    Author : Marcus Mhanna; [2022]
    Keywords : Magnetometer calibration; Ellipsoid Fitting; Helmholtz coil;

    Abstract : The most common equipment used for attitude determination in small satellites are magnetometers. However, using magnetometers gives rise to many challenges. One of these challenges is the calibration of the magnetometer. Magnetometer calibration takes many factors into account. READ MORE

  4. 3. Robust Drone Mission in the Arctic

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Elvira Brenner; Oscar Hultmar; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : During environmental research projects in the Arctic region AFRY has come across an unproportionally high number of cases where the navigation of drones have not worked as intended, compared to other regions. The main objective of this thesis is to investigate the cause of these navigational problems and determine the main cause. READ MORE

  5. 4. A Control System For A 3-Axis Camera Stabilizer

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och System

    Author : Bakhtiyar Asef Hasnain; Ali Algoz; [2018]
    Keywords : gimbal; camera stabilizer; 3-axis; teensy; kalman filter; arduino; complemetary filter;

    Abstract : The purpose of the project is to implement a control system for a 3- axis camera stabilizer. The stabilization is done by controlling three blushless DC motors driving the yaw, pitch and roll movements of the camera stabilizer's frame, respectively. READ MORE

  6. 5. Calibration and Uncertainty Analysis of a Spacecraft Attitude Determination Test Stand

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Charles Pope; [2017]
    Keywords : Attitude determination; test; error; experiment; analysis; sun sensor; magnetometer;

    Abstract : Experimental testing of attitude determination systems still plays an important role, despite increasing use of simulations. Testing provides a means to numerically quantify system performance, give confidence in the models and methods, and also discover and compensate for unexpected behaviours and interactions with the attitude determination system.
