Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control J.R. Wertz
Publisher: Springer

No specialized background is needed to absorb the material in this book. Even better, according to the Brite Constellation website, a key technology element in the program is the nanosatellite Attitude Determination and Control System (ADCS), which is a joint development between the UTIAS SFL and Sinclair Interplanetary, a small Ontario based engineering firm. One appendix covers spacecraft attitude and orbit determination and control, and a second appendix describes operational scenarios supported by agent interactions. WERTZMicrocosm Inc., Torrance, CA . In addition to his management functions, Dr. The GRADe study has investigated attitude determination areas offering potential applicability to spacecraft attitude determination. A spacecraft system comprises various subsystems, dependent upon mission profile. ESOC hosts the general-purpose ESA Operations Control Centre (OCC) which provides all required functions for spacecraft- & ground-segment control, orbit & attitude determination, and data acquisition & processing. BEESAT-1 Engineering Qualification Model. Previous Landsat missions relied on ground-based tracking to determine ephemeris data for the satellites. IIIf IIIIIIII I I I I I I I I I SPACECRAFT ATTITUDE DETERMINATION AND CONTROLEdited byJAMES R. The Berlin Experimental and Educational Satellite 2 is a 1U CubeSat project intended to test a reaction wheel and an Attitude Determination and Control (ADC) system. [2] Wertz, J.R., Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control, Dordrecht,. Interface systems with these components will be designed by cadets. The other will do the computations associated with the sensors and actuators used for satellite attitude determination and control. The NIC is the interfaces between the spacecraft's flight software, attitude determination, and its control subsystems and sensors. Doug Sinclair Countries contributing spacecraft to the Brite Constellation include Austria (TUGSAT-1 plus UniBRITE-1) and Poland (BRITE-PL and BRITE-PL2).
