Abstract

The invention provides a self-power wireless simulation solar angle sensor, belonging to the spacecraft attitude measurement sensor technical field. The sensor is characterized in that the sensor comprises a solar angle sensor unit, a power support unit and a wireless communication unit. The solar angle sensor unit comprises four parts of a front end optical system, a solar angle sensor, a conditioning circuit and an external cavity body. The power support unit comprises two parts of a power collecting device and a power management circuit. The wireless communication unit comprises an A / D converting circuit which is connected with the conditioning circuit and used for receiving solar angle information and a wireless communication circuit. The self-power supply and the pure wireless simulation solar sensor are realized in the invention. A two-dimensional position sensitive detector (PSD) is adopted as the solar angle sensor which has the advantages of high precision, simple structure, small size and no externally physically connected electric interface. Therefore, the self-power wireless simulation solar angle sensor is beneficial for the integrated design of an application system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a simulated sun sensor for a spacecraft and belongs to the technical field of spacecraft attitude measurement sensors. Background technique [0002] As an attitude vector acquisition sensor of the attitude measurement system, the sun sensor is widely used in various spacecraft. With the development of space vehicles in the direction of miniaturization and modularization, the need for smart and intelligent solar sensors is becoming more and more urgent. Existing sun sensors mainly include digital and analog types. Among them, the front-end of the digital sun sensor requires a complex optical system, while the image calculation and processing at the back-end are complex, the power consumption and volume of the device are large, and the corresponding data volume is large. Large communication capacity is required between sensitive devices and attitude determination systems, and it is difficult to adapt to the application of space ...
