Description

Space-based orbit determination method for earth-moon space spacecraft
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of spacecraft orbit judgment, and particularly relates to a space-based orbit determination method for a terrestrial-lunar space spacecraft.
Background
The orbit determination of the general spacecraft mainly has two ways, one is by means of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and the other is by means of ground station measurement. In a space range within tens of thousands of kilometers away from the earth, orbit determination modes based on GNSS measurement are mature, and the method for realizing the orbit determination of a spacecraft by utilizing the GNSS is the most common method. The spacecraft running around the ground receives the measurement signals sent by the GNSS constellation through the GNSS signal receiver to obtain measurement data, then the measurement data is processed, and the position, speed and state information is calculated to further realize orbit determination. Since GNSS measurement signals are attenuated with increasing distance, and when a spacecraft is too far from the earth, orbit determination cannot be achieved by using GNSS, other methods are generally adopted for orbit determination of a distant spacecraft.
The spacecraft in the earth-moon transfer orbit, the lunar orbit and other planet transfer orbits of the solar system is far from the earth, orbit determination is realized mainly by means of measurement of a ground station, and if the requirement on the accuracy of orbit determination is not high, an astronomical navigation mode can be adopted, and autonomous orbit determination is realized by measuring the starlight angular distance between a celestial body close to the spacecraft and a distant fixed star and utilizing the relation between the change of the starlight angular distance and the change of the position of the spacecraft.
In the former lunar exploration mission and the planet exploration mission, the method of implementing orbit determination through ground station measurement is widely used, the feasibility and the reliability of the method are verified, but the method has certain limitations. The spacecraft is far away from the earth, the speed is low, the ground station rotates along with the earth rotation synchronously, the ground station is shielded by the earth and cannot be fixed when being positioned on the back of the earth relative to the spacecraft, and the duration time can reach more than ten hours. On the other hand, the low speed of the spacecraft and the low rotating speed of the earth cause that the distance and the speed of the spacecraft relative to the ground station change slowly, so the measurement sensitivity is low, a long time is needed for a real-time orbit determination method to converge, and the orbit determination precision is not high. Although these problems can be solved by increasing the number and coverage of ground stations, in order to meet the vast search mission of future earth-moon space, it is necessary to build ground stations covering the globe, which obviously has a large resistance and is expensive, so that better solutions are required.

and 3, taking the next epoch as an initial epoch, taking the state of the next epoch as an initial state, taking the error of the next epoch as an initial error, repeatedly executing the step 2 to obtain a plurality of groups of states and errors, and integrating the states and errors of all epochs to obtain the track of the spacecraft to be tracked.

Detailed Description
The principles and features of this invention are described below in conjunction with examples which are set forth to illustrate, but are not to be construed to limit the scope of the invention.
As shown in fig. 1, a method for determining a space-based orbit of a terrestrial-lunar space spacecraft includes:
step 1, obtaining an initial epoch t 0 Initial state X of spacecraft to be determined 0 And initial error P 0
Step 2, passing the next epoch t 1 The distance between the low-orbit satellite and the spacecraft to be orbited is determined for the initial state X 0 And the initial error P 0 Performing extended Kalman filtering to obtain epoch t 1 The orbit determination result of (2), the orbit determination result comprising: state X 1 And an error P 1
And 3, repeating the step 2 to obtain n orbit determination results, and integrating the n orbit determination results to obtain the track of the spacecraft to be orbited.
In some possible implementation modes, a space-based measurement mode based on a low-orbit satellite is adopted, the earth-moon space spacecraft is quickly and accurately fixed in orbit, the problems that a traditional ground-based measurement signal is easy to block and the orbit determination convergence is slow are solved, and the orbit determination accuracy is higher than that of a traditional orbit determination scheme.
It should be noted that "orbit determination" refers to trajectory determination and orbit of the earth-moon space spacecraft. "space-based" refers to a ground station of known location used in ground-based tracking methods relative to "ground-based". In this patent, the orbit determination method uses low orbit (LEO) satellites with known position and velocity states, not ground stations; because the low earth orbit satellites are operational on the sky and move around the earth, they are called "space-based". The epoch mentioned in this patent is a time measurement unit in the aerospace field, and the first epoch is corresponding to the epoch t 1 In this example, the second epoch corresponds to epoch t2, and in the same way, the state of the first epoch is X 1 The state of the ith epoch is X i By analogy, the same applies to errors.
According to the technical scheme, as shown in figure 2, a GNSS receiver is configured on an LEO satellite to receive GNSS navigation satellite signals, and m-level positioning accuracy and 30 ns-level time service accuracy can be achieved in an on-orbit mode. The LEO satellite and the Earth-moon space spacecraft are both provided with radio transceiver equipment, so that the LEO satellite and the Earth-moon space spacecraft can establish a link to complete ranging and speed measurement. And after the earth-moon spacecraft receives the ranging signals and the orbit state of the LEO satellite, the orbit information can be automatically calculated in orbit.
The patent provides a method for implementing orbit determination on a lunar space spacecraft by using low-orbit satellite measurement data and an extended Kalman filtering algorithm. The method has two key points: one is the principle that when the state and orbit of the low-orbit satellite are known, the earth-moon space spacecraft is fixed by using the distance measurement data only; and the other is an extended Kalman filter orbit determination algorithm based on measurement data. The following description focuses on these two aspects:
basic principle for realizing orbit determination based on low-orbit satellite distance measurement data
The method for realizing low-orbit satellite orbit determination by utilizing GNSS measurement is mature and has higher precision, so the orbit of the low-orbit satellite is determined. A measuring link is established between a low earth orbit satellite and a Earth-moon space spacecraft (LEO spaceborne equipment sends a ranging signal which contains time information of sending time, an Earth-moon space spacecraft spaceborne receiver receives the ranging signal, extracts the sending time, calculates the time difference between sending and receiving, multiplies the time difference by the speed of light to obtain the distance, the technology is mature technology, and a sequence of the change of the distance between the two along with the time is obtained (the sequence mentioned here is a theoretical description, one distance data is arranged in each epoch, the data of different epochs are together called as a sequence. Different from the measurement of a ground station, because the low-orbit satellite has very high running speed and short earth surrounding period, the time for measuring the inter-satellite distance to be shielded by the earth is short, the change of the inter-satellite distance is relatively quick, and the measurement sensitivity is better. The orbits of the Earth-moon space spacecraft are different when the initial states of the Earth-moon space spacecraft are different, and the measurement sequences obtained by the measurement links are different, so that the orbits of the Earth-moon space spacecraft can be uniquely determined when the measurement sequences (sequences formed by distance measurement data at different times) and the initial states are known. (in the first sentence of this paragraph: "Low trackThe orbit of the satellite is determined by the GNSS ", and therefore the position and velocity state of the low orbit satellite is known and is a precondition, equivalent to a navigation satellite; what needs to be tracked is other spacecraft in earth-moon space. The text before the sentence is the description of the orbit determination principle, namely what can be realized, and the concrete implementation method is followed. ) The time series of the distance measurement data and the dynamic model (high-precision orbit dynamic model, the model used for calculation is the model of actually measured earth gravity, and the specific names are given in the table of "mechanical model and integrator setting" in the following embodiment. ) And (4) matching (the matching process is realized in the extended Kalman filtering, and the output result is an orbit formed by the positions and the speed states of the spacecraft with different epochs. A specific description of the extended Kalman Filter is shown in FIG. 15, where t i-1 Is the i-1 epoch, t i Is the ith epoch, t i+1 In the figure, time updating is carried out from the orbit determination result of the (i-1) th epoch to the predicted value of the (i) th epoch, measurement updating is carried out from the predicted value of the (i) th epoch to the orbit determination result of the (i) th epoch, time updating is carried out from the orbit determination result of the (i) th epoch to the predicted value of the (i + 1) th epoch, measurement updating is carried out from the predicted value of the (i + 1) th epoch to the orbit determination result of the (i + 1) th epoch, time updating is carried out from the orbit determination result of the (i + 1) th epoch to the predicted value of the next epoch, and the steps are repeated. ) And calculating the optimal matching orbit by using an extended Kalman filtering method, thereby realizing orbit determination of the Earth-moon space spacecraft.

Orbit determination process: using t 1 Epoch measurement data pair X 0 And P 0 Performing extended Kalman filtering to obtain t 1 Tracking result X of epoch 1 And P 1 Then using t 2 Epoch measurement data pair X 1 And P 1 Performing extended Kalman filtering again to obtain t 2 Orbit determination result X of epoch 2 And P 2 Repeating the above process to calculate X 3 And P 3 、X 4 And P 4 、X 5 And P 5 Etc. X 1 、X 2 、X 3 The equal state constitutes the final orbit determination result.
The orbit determination method based on the extended Kalman filtering is a real-time orbit determination method, so theoretically, the process can be continued as long as measurement data exist. In the engineering task, the ending condition is selected according to the actual situation.
Each extended kalman filter process has two steps: the first step is called "time update", that is, the next epoch state is predicted using a high-precision dynamical model using the previous epoch state (the state and the state covariance matrix are used together); the second step is 'measurement update', which uses the measurement data of the next epoch to correct the obtained prediction state and calculate the state orbit determination result of the next epoch. In the "time update" stage, the orbit dynamics model is needed, and in the "measurement update" stage, the partial derivative of the measurement data to be estimated is needed, so the linearization of the orbit dynamics model, the measurement model, and the measurement model is described first in detail.
1. Orbit dynamics model
The motion rule of the spacecraft which does not have dynamic free navigation in the earth-moon system can be expressed by a first-order ordinary differential equation as shown in the formula:
Figure GDA0003811394450000101
wherein r is the position vector of the spacecraft, v is the velocity vector of the spacecraft, r m Is the position vector of the moon, r s The lunar and solar position vectors are determined from ephemeris as the position vector of the sun. Mu.s e Is the constant of the earth's gravity, mu m Is the moon gravitational constant; mu.s s Is the solar gravitational constant; a is a a Atmospheric resistance acceleration; a is s Is solar radiation pressure acceleration; a is e And a m The earth and moon, respectively. The vectors in the formula are all represented in the J2000 geocentric inertial coordinate system. Let the state vector be Y = (r) T ,v T ) T Then the above formula can be abbreviated as:
Figure GDA0003811394450000102
in combination with a mechanical model, the orbital state can be calculated using numerical integration. The state of any epoch t relative to the initial epoch t 0 The state transition matrix of (a) is defined as:
Figure GDA0003811394450000111
the linearized mathematical expression of the state prediction process using the high-precision orbit dynamics model represents the process of transition from the state of the previous epoch to the state of the next epoch, the state of the state transition matrix multiplied by the previous epoch being equal to the state of the next epoch, i.e. Y (t) = Φ Y (t,t 0 )Y(t 0 )。
Due to errors of the dynamic model, acceleration process noise u (t) = (u) is introduced x u y u z ) T Modeling unmodeled kinetic model errors. U (t) is different for each epoch, but follows a normal distribution with a mean of zero. t is t 0 The effect of the acceleration process noise of an epoch on the state of the t epoch is represented by the transfer matrix Γ Y

Further unfolding it can yield:
Figure GDA0003811394450000113
where Δ t is the numerical integration step, I 3×3 Is an identity matrix.
2. Measurement model and linearization thereof
For a single inter-satellite link (two satellites), the distance between the low-orbit satellite and the spacecraft is obtained by measurement, and the model thereof is expressed as follows:
Figure GDA0003811394450000114
wherein, t for time, z (t) is the inter-satellite link distance measurement, r represents the spacecraft, s represents the low earth orbit satellite for the measurement,
Figure GDA0003811394450000115
is the geometric distance between the low-orbit satellite and the spacecraft, and epsilon (t) is the measurement noise。
In the "measurement update" orbit determination process of the extended kalman filter, a partial derivative of a distance to a state is needed, so that the measurement needs to be linearized, and a partial derivative of a measurement model is obtained:
Figure GDA0003811394450000121
wherein r (t) is the spacecraft centroid position;
Figure GDA0003811394450000122
is a unit vector (LoS) for the spacecraft to point to the low orbit satellite.
3. Extended Kalman Filter "time update"
The "time update" step is carried out from the previous epoch t i State X of i Sum covariance matrix P i Calculating and deducing the next epoch t by using a numerical integration method through a high-precision orbit dynamics model i+1 Is predicted value X of i+1|i And its corresponding covariance matrix P i+1|i The calculation method is as follows:
X i+1|i =X(t i+1 ,X(t i )=X i )+Γ i+1|i u i
Figure GDA0003811394450000123
the orbit dynamics model is shown as the formula, and the unmodeled orbit dynamics error is formed by the acceleration process noise u i And (4) showing. The state transition matrix is calculated as follows:
Φ i+1|i =Φ Y (t i+1 ,t i )
the process noise transfer matrix is represented as:
Γ i+1|i =Γ Y (t i+1 ,t i )
in the formula, Q c Is the acceleration process noise u i The covariance matrix of (A) is as followsIt is a three by three diagonal matrix. The values on the diagonal represent the standard deviation of the acceleration noise, which is a fixed value, set according to the unmodeled dynamic model error. The acceleration process noise is increased, so that the situation that the state covariance matrix is converged too fast to cause the orbit determination result to be deteriorated can be prevented, and meanwhile, the subsequent measurement data are allowed to continuously influence the filtering estimation. In the orbit determination simulation test, a trial and error method is adopted for selection to obtain an optimal orbit determination result.

4. Measurement update for extended Kalman filtering "
The second step of extended Kalman Filtering is "measurement update", using t i+1 Epoch distance measurement data z i+1 For state prediction value X from time update i+1|i And its corresponding covariance matrix P i+1|i Performing state correction processing to calculate t i+1 Orbit determination result X of epoch i+1 Sum co-defense difference matrix P i+1

Example 1, three typical orbits of earth-moon space are taken as an example, orbit determination calculation is carried out on the spacecraft on the orbits by using the method of the patent, and the result is evaluated.
1. Basic introduction to three tracks
The first type of track is a DRO track. The spacecraft is located near the moon and is located tens of thousands kilometers away from the earth, and moves around the moon under the earth-moon rotation system, the rotation direction around the moon is opposite to the revolution direction of the moon, the rotation direction around the earth under the earth-center inertia system is the same as the revolution direction of the moon, and the revolution period of the moon and the period of the spacecraft around the moon are in integral ratio, and the ratio is the resonance ratio. The orbit in which the spacecraft is located is a long-range retrograde orbit (DRO), and the typical resonance ratio is 2. The simulation of the patent uses a DRO with a period ratio of 2, the representation of the DRO under the earth-moon rotation system and the earth-center inertia system is shown in fig. 1, DU in the figure represents the earth-moon average distance, fig. 3 is the representation of the DRO (2). Fig. 4 is a representation of the DRO (2.
The second is the RO track. The large elliptical orbit refers to an elliptical orbit which has large eccentricity, low perigee and high apogee. The number of such orbits is numerous, and one of them has special properties, i.e., the ratio of the revolution period of the moon to the period of its orbit is an integer, which makes this type of orbit interesting. Fig. 5 shows a stable large elliptical orbit, the left diagram is a lunar rotation system, the right diagram is a geocentric inertia system, the resonance ratio is 3. DU in the figure represents the earth-moon average distance.
The third is a DRO in-track transfer track. The transfer of spacecraft from the vicinity of the earth to a DRO does not take the form of direct transfer, but rather uses low energy transfer orbits, which do not consume too much fuel, but at the expense of long transfer times. The low energy consumption transfer orbit is shown in fig. 6, the spacecraft on the orbit gradually runs to a DRO orbit insertion point under the action of the earth, the sun and the moon, and enters the DRO orbit through maneuvering, and in the process, the spacecraft is farthest from the earth by more than one million kilometers.
2. Link and track setup.

And (5) determining a track simulation result.
The following simulation compares the low-earth orbit satellite-based orbit determination result with the ground-based orbit determination result.

And (6) analyzing the result.
The orbit determination result shows that the time required by the convergence of the orbit determination process is dozens of hours or even hundreds of hours when the measurement is carried out only by the ground station, the orbit determination process is very sensitive to the velocity pulse error, and the convergence of the orbit determination process is difficult when the velocity pulse error is large and the measurement is carried out only by the ground station. When orbit determination is carried out based on continuous measurement of low-orbit satellites, convergence time required by orbit determination of spacecrafts on three different orbits is about two hours and three hours, and the method is greatly improved compared with a ground station. In the aspect of orbit determination precision, for spacecrafts with three different orbits, orbit determination results of two arc length measurement strategies show that the orbit determination precision based on low-orbit satellite measurement is better than that based on ground station measurement, which is particularly obvious in the aspect of transferring non-periodic DRO into orbit, and the difference of the orbit determination precision is about one order of magnitude. From the orbit determination result, the orbit determination method based on the low-orbit satellite measurement successfully solves the problems of long convergence time and poor precision caused by the fact that the ground station is shielded for a long time and the measurement sensitivity is low when the orbit determination is carried out based on the ground station measurement, the deployment of the low-orbit satellite is more convenient to realize than the construction of a large number of ground stations in the global scope, and the large number of low-orbit satellites are likely to form a GPS-like space-based measurement and control network in the future to meet more earth-moon space exploration tasks.
