The absolute potential of the low orbit spacecraft has little influence on the independently running spacecraft, but when two spacecrafts carrying unequal charges are butted in an LEO orbit, the charges accumulated on the surfaces of the two spacecrafts can be instantaneously transferred between two charged bodies to generate instantaneous discharge. The electric pulse generated by the instantaneous discharge can generate strong broadband electromagnetic radiation, so that the spacecraft is trapped in abnormal work.
Aiming at the situation, when two spacecrafts with different voltage levels are butted, instantaneous discharge during butting needs to be inhibited, instantaneous discharge current is reduced to the maximum extent, and the normal work of the spacecrafts during butting is ensured.

The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the drawings and the specific embodiments, which are not repeated herein, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the following embodiments.
Fig. 1 schematically shows a flow chart of a spacecraft docking potential control test method according to the invention. As shown in fig. 1, the spacecraft docking potential control test method according to the present invention comprises the following steps:
a. constructing a potential control test system;
b. simulating on-orbit charging of a spacecraft;
c. simulating the on-orbit docking of the spacecraft;
d. and testing the discharge current characteristic.
According to an embodiment of the invention, in the step a, a potential control test system is constructed, and the potential control test system is mainly realized by constructing three subsystems. Namely, an on-orbit spacecraft subsystem is built to simulate the on-orbit charging condition of the on-orbit spacecraft; the system is built in a visiting spacecraft subsystem to simulate the on-orbit charging condition of the visiting spacecraft; and (4) building a docking subsystem to simulate the docking process of the spacecraft.
Fig. 2 schematically shows a block diagram of the principle of a docking potential control test according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the step b, the on-orbit charging of the simulated on-orbit spacecraft and the on-orbit charging of the simulated visiting spacecraft are included in combination with fig. 2. On-orbit charging simulation of an on-orbit spacecraft: the charging condition of the on-rail spacecraft is simulated by configuring a switch K3, a resistor R2, a capacitor C2 and a direct-current power supply V2. In the test, the voltage of a direct current power supply V2 is set to be the same as the power supply voltage of the spacecraft, the value of a resistor R2 is 1k omega, and the value of a capacitor C2 is set to be the same as the equivalent capacitance value of the on-orbit spacecraft.
In-orbit charging simulation of the visiting spacecraft: the charging condition of the visiting spacecraft is simulated by configuring a switch K1, a resistor R1, a capacitor C1 and a direct-current power supply V1. In the test, the voltage of a direct current power supply V1 is set to be the same as the power supply voltage of a visiting spacecraft, the value of a resistor R1 is 1k omega, and the value of a capacitor C1 is set to be the same as the equivalent capacitance value of an on-orbit spacecraft.
According to an embodiment of the invention, in the step c, the method for simulating the in-orbit docking of the spacecraft is mainly carried out by arranging a docking head device. The butt joint device needs to be configured according to the actual contact characteristic of the spacecraft in butt contact, and the spacecraft is in butt contact with one point to one surface, so that one end of the butt joint device adopts a pointed metal body, and the other end of the butt joint device adopts a columnar metal body.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the step d, the switch K5 and the bleed-off resistor are configured to control the contact discharge, and the selected value of the bleed-off resistor is the same as the designed value. And simultaneously, an oscilloscope is used between the discharge resistor and the in-orbit spacecraft to test the current waveform at the moment of discharge.
The test process comprises the following steps: setting the voltage of a power supply V2 to be consistent with the power supply voltage of a spacecraft, turning on a switch K3 to charge a capacitor C2, setting the voltage of a power supply V1 to be consistent with the power supply voltage of a visiting spacecraft, turning on a switch K1 to charge a capacitor C1, turning off switches K3 and K1, turning on a switch K5, moving a butt joint device to enable two ends to be in contact, and measuring the current waveform at the contact moment by using an oscilloscope.
If the measurement needs to be carried out again, the switches K4 and K2 are turned on to discharge the capacitors C2 and C1, and the test process is repeated after the discharge is finished.
Therefore, the invention simulates the in-orbit charging process of the in-orbit spacecraft and the visiting spacecraft and the docking process of the in-orbit spacecraft and the visiting spacecraft by building the docking potential control test system, and tests the discharge current characteristics under the conditions of different discharge resistance values. And then comparing the discharge current characteristic with a design required value, verifying that the waveform amplitude of the discharge current is lower than the required value, and the discharge time is lower than the required value so as to ensure that the discharge resistance has reasonable value selection and the discharge current characteristic meets the requirement.
According to the method, the spacecraft docking potential control test method provided by the invention has good practicability, can realize the verification of spacecraft docking potential control, and ensures the reasonable design of spacecraft docking potential control.
Although the principles and methods of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that changes may be made in the specific embodiments, such as changing the resistance of the bleed resistor, the test method of the discharge current, and the on/off timing of the switch, without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined in the claims and their equivalents.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like that fall within the spirit and principle of the present invention are intended to be included therein.
