Description

Method for reducing number of observation satellites for observing space target
Technical Field
The present invention relates generally to the field of satellite monitoring of a spatial target, and more particularly to a method for reducing the number of observation satellites used to observe a spatial target. The invention also relates to an observation constellation with a reduced number of observation satellites.
Background
In many fields such as scientific research, military, national defense, national security and the like, space targets such as meteorites, planets, flyers, space debris and the like need to be monitored so as to give the positions and changes of the space targets in the sky, and further determine the positions of the space targets so as to calculate or correct the operation tracks of the space targets. After the orbit is obtained, the accurate position information of the space target can be obtained, so that relevant information is provided for the safe flight of the space spacecraft, or the space spacecraft can be used for other scientific research purposes or safety purposes.
Currently, ground-based systems are primarily relied upon for space debris monitoring. However, ground-based systems such as ground-based telescopes are affected by weather and sunlight when observing stars and space debris, the observation arc segment of each day is limited, and the re-observation period of the debris is too long; although the ground-based radar is not affected by weather and sunlight, the ground-based radar is limited by the geographical position, after the debris is observed, more than 12 hours are needed for the next observation, the space debris observation generated by the sudden space event can be observed only after 8-12 hours, and the safety of the on-orbit aircraft is greatly threatened.
Compared with a foundation system, the space-based system has the following advantages: (1) the space-based system is not influenced by weather conditions, and can work all the time; (2) space debris observed by the space-based system does not pass through an atmospheric system, and the space-based system monitoring has a higher signal-to-noise ratio than a ground-based system.
However, there is a need for a space based system with higher coverage, thereby further improving observation reliability and reducing hardware and software costs of the space based system.

The invention finds that the existing space target observation schemes have the problems of low coverage rate, high single-star telescope load and the like. In order to solve the technical problem, the invention discloses a construction scheme for quickly finding a satellite constellation by a space target, which comprises the following steps:
determining initial parameters of an observation satellite according to information of an observed space target and information of the observation satellite, wherein the initial parameters comprise: the distance observed by the satellite, the orbit height of the observation satellite and the number of the observation satellites;
determining an observation angle according to the initial observation parameters;
and determining the requirement of the load according to the observation distance and the observation angle.
According to the load requirement, a space target is constructed to quickly find a satellite constellation; the constellation system is characterized in that a plurality of observation satellites are arranged on the same orbital plane, each satellite performs forward and backward observation when running along an orbit, and an observation range covers adjacent satellites to form an observation annular zone.
The space target rapid discovery satellite constellation provided by the invention can comprise: the number of the satellites such as 4 stars, 6 stars, 8 stars, 9 stars, 10 stars and 12 stars; each satellite has the same composition and carries two optical telescope loads, and the loads are respectively arranged on two sides of the satellite, so that the telescopes can observe front and back along the track.
Furthermore, the satellite observation range is determined by the distribution range of the targets, the distribution range of the common targets is 300-2000 km, so the observation range can be selected;
furthermore, the observation range of the lower boundary of the satellite is higher than the adjacent atmosphere of the earth so as to avoid the influence of the earth, and the height is generally 100 kilometers;
furthermore, the downward observation boundary of the satellite load needs to be tangent to the earth's limb atmosphere, so that the coverage efficiency of the low-orbit space target is highest;
further, when the adjacent tangent position is determined, the number of satellites and the orbital height of the satellites can be determined;
further, when the number of satellites and the orbital height of the satellites are determined, the detection range and the detection angle of the load can be determined, and therefore the requirement of the load can be determined.
In the construction method for quickly finding the satellite constellation by the space target, the orbit heights of observation satellites with different observation quantities are determined according to the position design of the tangent point.
Because two adjacent satellites are preferably observed symmetrically, 3/4 with the tangent point of the included angle between the two satellites is selected when the observation coverage range of the two adjacent satellites is the maximum, namely, the included angle between the satellite 1 and the satellite 2 is
Figure BDA0002680446790000061
(N satellites form a network), the angle between the connecting line between the tangent point of the lower edge of the satellite 1 and the center of the earth and the connecting line between the satellite 1 and the center of the earth is
Figure BDA0002680446790000062
The included angle between the connecting line of the tangent point of the lower edge observed by the satellite 2 and the center of the earth and the connecting line between the satellite 2 and the center of the earth is also
Figure BDA0002680446790000063
The invention is further elucidated with reference to the drawings in conjunction with the detailed description.
Fig. 1 shows a flow of a method 100 according to the invention.
At step 102, a number N of observation satellites is determined for observing a target in space. The number N is 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, or 12. The observation satellites are preferably evenly distributed over the circumference of the earth, that is, adjacent observation satellites are spaced at the same angle.
At step 104, the observation lower edge of each observation satellite is determined, wherein the tangent point of the observation lower edge of each observation satellite is determined such that the line connecting the tangent point and the center of the earth's sphere and the line connecting the observation satellite and the center of the earth's sphere form an angle of
Figure BDA0002680446790000064
By means of the tangent point thus determined, the coverage can be significantly increased and the telescope load of the satellite can be reduced. For details, reference is made to the following description.
At step 106, the orbital altitude of each observation satellite is determined based on the determined tangent point for that observation satellite. In the case where the angle between the tangent point and the adjacent satellite is determined, the satellite to geocentric distance can be uniquely determined, and thus the orbital altitude of the satellite can be determined.
At step 108, an observed upper edge for each observed satellite is determined. The determination of the upper edge can be determined, for example, depending on the desired range of orbit of the spatial target to be observed or the desired observation angle.
In step 110, a spatial target is observed by each observation satellite in a field of view consisting of the upper and lower edges of observation. For example, the spatial object is observed by a plurality of telescopes (or cameras) per observation satellite, which may each have the field of view or may have the field of view in combination, i.e. the fields of view of the plurality of telescopes together constitute the determined field of view. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, each observation satellite has two oppositely oriented telescopes, each telescope having the above-mentioned fields of view, i.e. the fields of view of the two telescopes can cover the fields of view on both sides of the satellite.
The details of the present invention are further set forth below.
Fig. 2 shows the field of view of two adjacent observation satellites according to the invention. Referring to fig. 2, a design of a load directing mode in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The observation lower edge of the load is tangent to the earth edge atmosphere, and the observation covers the adjacent satellite to realize the observation of the adjacent satellite.
Referring to FIG. 2, circle O is centered on Earth center O and has a radius Re + he, where Re represents the Earth's radius, he represents the Earth's peripherial atmospheric altitude, and OA and OB are two platform orientations. A and B are the platform positions. If the observation zone has N platforms in total
Figure BDA0002680446790000071
In the figure, OC is a bisector of & AOB and OD is a bisector of & COB, thus
Figure BDA0002680446790000072
Figure BDA0002680446790000073
In order to ensure the lowest detection height, the lower boundary AD of the telescope visual field is tangent to the circle O, the tangent point is D, and then the ground center distance of the platform A is
Figure BDA0002680446790000074
The lowest detected geocentric distance is
Figure BDA0002680446790000075
The upper boundary AE of the field of view is crossed with OC and E and is crossed with OB and F, and r is the same as the detection requirement2OE RE + hl, where hl is the upper boundary of the field of view observation, then
Figure BDA0002680446790000081
Figure BDA0002680446790000082
Figure BDA0002680446790000083
Then the field angle DAE is equal to angle OAE- (90-a) (7)
If r is0>r2A in the formula (5)B, to be replaced by a + b. Otherwise, OF will be less than r2Full coverage of the he-hl target is not achieved.
Thus, at the object between OA and OB, a stable observation geometry is established, with the A-platform (in this application, "platform" is used interchangeably with "observation satellite") observing objects near the B-platform, which observes objects near the A-platform, objects in the intersection of the two fields of view, and has the opportunity to intersect the observation.
According to the above calculation mode, when the number of platforms is selected, the orbit height of the satellite can also be determined, and the field angle of the load carried by the satellite can also be determined.
And carrying out preliminary analysis design on configuration schemes under networking conditions of 4-star, 6-star, 8-star, 9-star, 10-star and 12-star respectively.

12.00 633.75 155.90 38.84 1830.47
In conclusion, the more the platforms are, the closer the required detection distance is, and the detection of small targets is facilitated; however, as the platform height increases, the requirements for the field of view of the telescope become smaller, which also facilitates load development.
The method for selecting the tangent point scheme comprises the following steps: there are two camera pointing modes to achieve the maximum annulus coverage area; taking two satellites as an example, the included angle between the satellites is α, as shown in fig. 2 and 3. OC is a central axis with an included angle between the two stars and the earth center, and the pointing method of the figure 2 is that the A star observes the airspace in the surrounding range of the B star, and the B star observes the airspace in the surrounding range of the A star; fig. 3 is a pointing method in which star a is responsible for the spatial domain near star a and star B is responsible for the peripheral domain of star B. The benefit of the method of fig. 2 is that the camera field of view is small, which can achieve global coverage, but requires strong detection capability of the camera; the benefit of the method of FIG. 3 is that the single camera detection capability requirement is weak, but the camera field of view requirement is very large; taking 6-star networking as an example, the satellite view field can realize the global coverage only when meeting pi +2 theta, wherein theta is an included angle between a connecting line of a tangent point and the geocentric and a connecting line of the B star and the geocentric. From the satellite scale, the design is simpler as the number of cameras is smaller, and therefore the pointing mode of fig. 2 is adopted by the invention.
As can be seen from fig. 2, there is a partial gap below the view field of the lower edge of the camera, which is shown as S1, S2, S3, and the total area S is S1+ S2+ S3, and the smaller S, the higher the coverage. As can be seen from fig. 1:
Figure BDA0002680446790000091
wherein
Figure BDA0002680446790000092
n is the number of satellites, R is the radius of the earth, Rh is the altitude of the earth's adjacent atmosphere, for equation (8), when
Figure BDA0002680446790000093
And S takes a minimum value, the area is minimum at the moment, and the coverage rate is highest. Therefore, the positions of the tangent points of the lower field of view and the adjacent edge of the earth are determined, and the number of constellations and the orbit height are correspondingly determined.
The invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
(1) the observation coverage can be greatly improved by the invention, which is based on the following insights of the inventor: the inventors have unexpectedly found, through research, that when the tangent point of the lower edge of the satellite's view is chosen such that the line connecting said tangent point and the center of the earth's sphere with the satelliteThe angle between the connecting line and the center of the earth is
Figure BDA0002680446790000094
In time, the uncovered blind area between the lower edge of each observation and the earth (or the atmosphere) can be minimized, so that the observation coverage rate is greatly improved;
(2) the invention can also reduce the number of satellite-borne telescopes by selecting the tangent point, because the selection of the tangent point can ensure that the visual field which can be realized by a single telescope of the satellite is larger, and the visual field of each satellite additionally covers the space part which is not covered by the adjacent satellite, thereby ensuring that the larger visual field can be realized by the telescopes with the same number, and reducing the load of the telescopes loaded by the satellite;
(3) the space target constructed by the invention can quickly find the satellite constellation, the coverage efficiency of the low-orbit space target is high, an annulus formed by winding the earth for one circle can be realized, and the complete monitoring of low-orbit space fragments is realized;
(4) the space-based space target constructed by the method can quickly find the satellite constellation, the observation timeliness of the space target is high, the revisit period is high, and each target passes through the observation girdle twice in one orbit period, so that the satellite constellation is observed twice. For example, target fragments may be observed once per hour;
(5) the space-based space fragments constructed by the method can be used for rapidly finding satellite constellations, the adopted load design scheme is simple, and less observation loads can be used for realizing excellent observation efficiency;
(6) the space-based space target constructed by the invention can quickly find the satellite constellation, and can realize uninterrupted work for 24 hours all day without being influenced by atmospheric environment, weather and solar illumination when being deployed on a solar synchronous orbit in the morning and evening.
