Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of satellite navigation guidance and control, in particular to a ground demonstration verification system and method for remote approximation of a deep space small celestial body.
Background
Because the small celestial body orbit has large uncertainty, the error can reach hundreds of kilometers, the observation time of the deep space measurement and control station for measuring the orbit is too long, and the small celestial body has great possibility of appearing a navigation camera view field range at the interval of measuring the orbit twice, the method of measuring the orbit by combining optical autonomous navigation with the deep space measurement and control station is required for realizing the target of remote approach of the small celestial body. The capacity of measuring the orbit at the deep space station cannot be greatly improved in a short period, and the performance of strengthening the optical load is the key for the success of a small celestial body remote approach task.
The autonomous optical navigation with strong autonomy, high precision and real time is an important technical link in a deep space exploration task. The small celestial body approaching section is a key stage of small celestial body detection, and the navigation performance of the detector at the stage determines whether the detector can safely and accurately reach a target small celestial body. The optical navigation is a navigation method commonly used in the current approach section, a detector obtains a small celestial body image through a satellite-borne camera, then the sight direction of the small celestial body relative to the detector is determined, the sight direction is taken as an observed quantity, and the position and the speed of the detector relative to a small planet are estimated by combining a kinetic equation of the detector relative to the small planet. However, in the process of approaching the small celestial body, the motion track of the detector relative to the small celestial body is approximate to a straight line, and the geometrical configuration degrades the performance of optical relative navigation and reduces the precision.
In the long-distance approaching section of the small celestial body detection task, the optical navigation target is generally the optical center of the target small celestial body. The star and the like of the small celestial body of the target are generally low, imaging can be carried out only by long-time exposure, multiple disturbances of an optical axis of an imaging system can be caused by multiple reasons such as thermal shrinkage, mechanical vibration and attitude deviation in the exposure time, the imaging of the navigation target on a CCD plane can deviate, the imaging is not distributed in a dot or spot shape any more but dragged, the actual imaging is a track, and the characteristic information of the navigation target is difficult to extract for accurate navigation.
