  1. 1. Real Time Navigation Algorithms for LEO Small Satellites using COTS GNSS

    University essay from KTH/Lantmäteri – fastighetsvetenskap och geodesi

    Author : Nathan Groisne; [2023]
    Keywords : PNT; Small Satellite; COTS; GNSS; Navigation; ACS; PNT; små satelliter; COTS; GNSS; navigering; ACS;

    Abstract : Many satellites in LEO use a GNSS-based navigation system, taking advantage of the GNSS constellations in MEO to enhance navigation capabilities. The thesis work focused on developing the software enabling GNSS-based navigation for Hemeria's future small satellites operating in LEO. READ MORE

  3. 2. UAV Navigation using Local Computational Resources : Keeping a target in sight

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

    Author : Magnus Cardell; [2021]
    Keywords : Unmanned aerial vehicle; Path planning; On-board computation; Autonomy; Obemannade drönare; Vägplanering; Lokala beräkningar; Autonomi;

    Abstract : When tracking a moving target, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) mustkeep the target within its sensory range while simultaneously remaining awareof its surroundings. However, small flight computers must have sufficientenvironmental knowledge and computational capabilities to provide real-timecontrol to function without a ground station connection. READ MORE

  4. 3. Integration and validation of a nanosatellite flight software (ESA OPS-SAT project)

    University essay from KTH/Rymdteknik

    Author : Anthony Surivet; [2021]
    Keywords : Flight software; On-board autonomy; Orbit control; Collision risks; Nanosatellite; Flygprogramvara; Inbyggd autonomi; Banreglering; Kollisionsrisker; Nanosatellit;

    Abstract : With the increasing number of satellites operating in orbit and the development of nanosatelliteconstellations, it has become more and more arduous for operators to keep track of every satellitestate, and perform corrective or avoidance manoeuvres. That is why CNES, the French space agency,is developing new algorithms, which aimed at making satellites more self-su cient. READ MORE

  5. 4. Increasing Spacecraft Autonomy through Embedded Neural Networks for Semantic Image Analysis

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

    Author : Andreas Schartel; [2017]
    Keywords : Autonomy; Embedded; Neural Networks; Image Analysis; FPGA;

    Abstract : In the scope of this thesis, a possible usage of embedded artificial neural networks for on-board image analysis is investigated. After an introduction which imparts basic knowledge about artificial neural network and autonomy in spaceflight, a possible system design is elaborated based on previously defined reference scenarios.

  6. 5. Evaluation of the LSTS Toolchain for Networked Vehicle Systems on KTH Autonomous Maritime Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Elias Strandell Erstorp; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The department of Naval Architecture at the Royal Institute of Technology is in posession of one Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) and a second is under construction. A project for doing hydrographic mapping using an Autonomous Surface Vehicle (ASV) is also initiated. READ MORE
