摘要:
A balloon-born stabilized platform has been developed for the remotely operated altitude-azimuth pointing of a millimetre wave telescope system. This paper presents a development and implementation of model reference adaptive control (MRAC) for the azimuth-pointing system of the stabilized platform. The primary goal of the controller is to achieve pointing RMS better than 0.1-degrees. Simulation results indicate that MRAC can achieve pointing RMS better than 0.01-degrees. Ground test results show pointing RMS better than 0.03-degrees. Data from the first flight at the National Scientific Balloon Facility (NSBF), Palestine, TX show pointing RMS better than 0.02-degrees.
