Description
This scenario simulates the performance of the Explored over a 7-day period, during which the SEP thruster is fired continuously. The dual gimbaled platform is used to articulate the thruster and perform momentum dumping, and in this first cut it relies on exact knowledge of the location of the center of mass of the whole system. The platform reference is computed every hour. Platform and solar arrays are actuated via torque commands computed using PID-type controllers.
Commits 1 through 6 contain each one of the python scripts that are necessary to run the simulation.
Future work
Future work will include an additional flight software module to estimate the location of the center of mass, and feed that estimated location to the platformReference module.
