High resolution standard proximity sensor
Roger BlaserThe high‐resolution standard proximity sensor (HRSPS) is a true contact‐less eddy current displacement measuring system qualified for high‐reliability satellite applications. It…
Attitude and orbit determination for small satellite using magnetometer measurement
Wang Jianqi, Cao Xibin, Sun ZhaoweiThe measurement of geomagnetic field can provide a reliable and economical basis for attitude and orbit information of low earth orbiting satellite. Because the earth's magnetic…
Some novel space propulsion systems
Forrest BishopSeveral spacecraft beam‐propulsion concepts are introduced. “Mesoparticle beam propulsion” uses a collimated beam of mesoscopic particles, very roughly on the order of a nanogram…
The study of relative dynamics for spacecraft formation flying in eccentric orbits
Pengji Wang, Di YangSpacecraft formation flying is a key technology for future astronautics. The relative dynamics of formation flying in eccentric orbits is studied, and the relative motion between…
