| Popis: | Micro-vibrations on-board a satellite have degrading effects on the performance of certain payloads like observation cameras. The major sources of vibrations include momentum wheels, solar array drives, other rotary mechanical equipment, etc. These vibrations result in loss of the pointing precision and image quality of the payload through intricate transfer paths. To improve the accuracy of a satellite system with many vibration sources and complex transfer paths, it is necessary to determine the main transfer path of vibration. In this study, a path identification method is proposed and applied to the transfer system from the momentum wheel to the camera mount. First, the observer/Kalman filter identification (OKID) algorithm is used to acquire the state-space equation of each path subsystem. Then, the subsystem order is obtained based on the slope of the singular entropy increment. In the next phase, combined with the measured disturbance force of the momentum wheel, the displacement response of the target point is predicted. Finally, the dominant transfer path of vibration is achieved by calculating the vibration contribution of each path to the response point. The results indicate that the dominant transfer path is the axial path of the horizontal momentum wheel, which contributes to the vibration of the camera mount at most. Effective vibration reduction measures should be taken to this path to suppress the vibration signal. In comparing the identified displacement response with the finite element response of the camera mount under different noise conditions, the correlation coefficients are >0.85, which proves the accuracy and anti-noise capability of the identification method. |
