Accurate alignment between high-performance payloads and attitude control sensors is essential factor to guarantee accurate attitude orientation and high pointing stability of the satellite. Space craft developers often use theodolite measurement system for satellite alignment during ground AIT(Assembly Integration and Test) phase. When measuring theodolite, errors may occur due to line of sight error, tilting axis error, vertical index error, and vertical axis error. In addition, errors that can occur during alignment measurements with multiple theodolites are analyzed through the alignment cube measurements test. Based on the alignment cube measurements test, a technical method that can improve the alignment measurement accuracy was suggested and it's measurements results satisfied the satellite design requirements.

Spaceborne earth observation or astronomical payloads often use Cassegrain-type telescopes due to the limits in mass and volume. Precision optical alignment of such a telescope is vital to the success of the mission. This paper describes the simulated optical alignment methods using interferograms, wavefront error, and reverse-optimization method for different levels of alignment accuracy. It concludes with the alignment experiment results of a Cassegrain type spaceborne camera with 300mm entrance pupil diameter.

다목적실용위성 2호 영상의 geo-location 정밀도 80 m (CE90) 요구사항을 만족시키기 위하여, 1개의 IRU 와 2개의 star tracker 들로부터 획득되는 데이터를 이용하여 지상에서 후처리 추정 과정을 거쳐 위성의 자세를 결정하는 정밀자세결정 시스템이 개발되었다. 정밀자세결정 시스템의 정밀도를 극대화하기 위해서는 우주 공간의 극심한 열적 환경으로 인해 발생하는 star tracker 정렬 오차를 효율적으로 보정하여야 한다. 정밀한 정렬 오차의 보정을 위해서는 영상 내에 촬영된 지상의 ground control point 데이터를 이용하여야 하는데, 현실적으로 한반도 모든 지역에 대해 ground control point 를 확보할 수 없다. 현재 항공우주연구원이 확보하고 있거나 이후 확보할 예정에 있는 고해상도 영상을 위한 ground control point 들은 대전지역에 국한될 예정이다. 이와 같은 상황에서 정밀자세결정 시스템의 성능을 높이기 위한 최적의 시스템 운용 개념을 본 연구에서 제시하였으며, 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 타당성을 분석하였다.

관성항법시스템에서는 항법을 수행하기 전 항체의 자세를 구하는 정렬을 수행하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 추정치 기반의 섭동모델인 Psi각 오차모델을 이용하여 정밀 정렬을 수행하는 알고리즘을 제시하고 모의실험을 통하여 정렬 오차가 예상 결과 범위 내로 추정됨을 확인하였다.

In lunar exploration, the necessity of utilizing rover is verified by the examples of the Soviet Union and China and the similar Mars missions of the United States. In order to achieve the successful management of a lunar rover, a high precision navigation technique is required, and accordingly, high precision initial alignment is essential. Even though it is general to perform initial alignment in a steady state, a multiposition alignment technique is applied when high performance is needed. On the lunar surface, however, the performance of initial alignment decreases from that on Earth, and it cannot be improved by applying multiposition alignment method owing to certain constraints of lunar environment. In this paper, a sun sensor aided multiposition alignment technique is proposed. The measurement model for a sun vector is established, and its observability analysis is performed. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified through computer simulations, and the results show the estimation performance is improved dramatically.
