Systematic vectored thrust calibration method for satellite momentum control
A method of simultaneously performing a translational maneuver of a spacecraft by a thruster and dumping momentum from the spacecraft during a time period P. The method entails aligning the thruster along a thrust vector which is fixed during the time period P, wherein the thrust vector is aligned w...

| Zusammenfassung: | A method of simultaneously performing a translational maneuver of a spacecraft by a thruster and dumping momentum from the spacecraft during a time period P. The method entails aligning the thruster along a thrust vector which is fixed during the time period P, wherein the thrust vector is aligned with the center of mass of the spacecraft at a time P/2, and firing the thruster throughout the time period P. |
