Optimization of Separated Spacecraft Interferometer Trajectories in the Absence of A Gravity-Well Edmund M Kong Prof david w, miller MIT Space Systems Laboratory 20th March 1998 Space Systems Laboratory Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Background OF TECHN Why is Software Engineering Hard? “Curse of flexibility \And they looked upon the software and saw that it was good. But they just had to add one other feature ... No physical constraints
Overview Spacecraft data processing requires microcomputers and interfaces that are functionally similar to desktop systems However, space systems require: - Low power, volume, and mass High reliability and fault tolerance
Satellite communications Architecture Identify Requirements Specify architectures Determine link data rates Design Size each link Document your rationale
Ground system design Col John Keesee 6/17/2004 Lesson objective The student will Be able to list the functions performed by a space systems ground support system 2. Know factors in ground station design 3. Know components of ground station
State-Space Systems e Ful-state feedback Control How do we change the poles of the state-space system? Or, even if we can change the pole locations Where do we change the pole locations to? How well does this approach work?

This is a bit strange, because previously our figure of merit when comparing one state-space model to another(page 8-8)was whether they reproduced the same same transfer function Now we have two very different models that result in the same transfer function
