The invention relates to a realization method for the real-time transmission of
satellite lateral motion image, which is characterized in that: a complete
satellite adopts four control antennae for
transceiver, so that the control antenna beam is in omnidirectional coverage after the
satellite being moved laterally; the complete satellite is controlled to move laterally, continuously and rapidly in a large angle by a
momentum wheel; the satellite attitude is measured by using a whirligig in the process of lateral motion; and the satellite crab angle can be calculated in real time, simultaneously, the
drift angle can be controlled, so the satellite lateral motion is set to a swinging angle scope stably. In the phase of satellite bias flight, a
star sensor and the whirligig are adopted for united
attitude determination to the satellite; the camera integral time is calculated in real time by a
GPS receiver according to the
satellite orbit and
latitude; the camera will generate
exposure and imaging according to the integral time; the
imaging data after the lateral motion can be transmitted to the ground by the satellite through an array
data transmission antenna. The realization method for the real-time transmission of satellite lateral motion image has the advantages that: the large-angle lateral motion of the satellite can be realized; thereby the camera development difficulty because of camera wabble or swing mirror addition can be lowered; the
visual range of the satellite can be expanded; and the revisit cycle of the satellite can be increased.
