Wideband Cavity-Backed CubeSat Antenna in S band

Anja Skrivervik, Miroslav Veljovic

The Telemetry, Tracking and Command (TT&C) antennas are a crucial component of small satellites, as their in-orbit attitude is not always well-defined. The TT&C antenna design for a CubeSat is an even more challenging task, considering the volume restricti ...

VDM-based UAV Attitude Determination in Absence of IMU Data

Jan Skaloud, Mehran Khaghani

The capability of a previously proposed VDM (vehicle dynamic model) based navigation method for UAVs is assessed in attitude determination without IMU data. This method utilizes the VDM as main process model within the navigation filter and treats data fro ...

Nonlinear PD control of a Parallel Delta robot: Expermentals Results

Mohamed Bouri

In this paper, a nonlinear proportional derivative control (NPD) is proposed to solve the trajectory tracking problem of a parallel Delta robot. In order to handle the strong coupling effect and external disturbances as well as to realise high-precision tr ...

Linear Parameter-Varying Kalman Filter for angular velocity estimation of a reaction sphere actuator for satellite attitude control

Alireza Karimi, Leopoldo Rossini, Guzmán Borque Gallego

This paper presents a novel angular velocity estimation strategy of a Reaction Sphere (RS) for satellite attitude control based on a Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) Kalman Filter. The reaction sphere is a permanent magnet synchronous spherical actuator whos ...

Integrated Sensor Orientation on Micro Aerial Vehicles

Martin Rehak

Mapping with Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs whose weight does not exceed 5 kg) is gaining importance in applications, such as corridor mapping, road and pipeline inspections, or mapping of large areas with homogeneous surface structure, e.g. forest or agricul ...

Bundle adjustment with raw inertial observations

Jan Skaloud, Martin Rehak, Davide Antonio Cucci

t is well known that accurate aerial position and attitude control is beneficial for image orientation in airborne photogrammetry. The aerial control is traditionally obtained by Kalman filtering/smoothing inertial and GNSS observations prior to the bundle ...

GNSS/INS/Star Tracker Integration for Real-Time On-Board Autonomous Orbit and Attitude Determination in LEO, MEO, GEO and Beyond

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Vincenzo Capuano, Paul David Blunt, Endrit Shehaj

In our previous studies, we demonstrated that Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals can be processed, not only in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), but also in higher earth orbits, up to the Moon. In order to maximize the GNSSbased navigation performance, ...

Realization of a Diamagnetically Levitating Rotor Driven by Electrostatic Field

Hannes Bleuler, Qingwen Cui

In this paper, a novel configuration of frictionless diamagnetic levitation combined with electrostatic glass motor is presented. A 12.5 mm diameter disc shaped rotor comprised of pyrolytic graphite and glass is fabricated. The rotor disc is levitated stab ...

Orbital Filter Aiding of a High Sensitivity GPS Receiver for Lunar Missions

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Vincenzo Capuano, Paul David Blunt

Recent studies have shown that weak Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals could potentially be used to navigate from the Earth to the Moon. This would increase autonomy, robustness and flexibility of the navigation architectures for future luna ...

A wrist sensor and algorithm to determine instantaneous walking cadence and speed in daily life walking

Kamiar Aminian, Pierre-André Farine, Benedikt Fasel, Cyntia Duc, Farzin Dadashi, Martin Savary, Flavien Bardyn

In daily life, a person’s gait—an important marker for his/her health status—is usually assessed using inertial sensors fixed to lower limbs or trunk. Such sensor locations are not well suited for continuous and long duration measurements. A better locatio ...

Drift Reduction for Inertial Sensor Based Orientation and Position Estimation in the Presence of High Dynamic Variability During Competitive Skiing and Daily-Life Walking

Benedikt Fasel

Nowadays inertial sensors are extensively used for gait analysis. They can be used to perform temporal event detection (i.e. step detection) and to estimate the orientation of the feet and other body segments to determine walking speed and distance. Usuall ...
