Bringing spacecraft into solar-oriented attitude by the measurements of a single-axis angular-rate sensor and an optical solar sensor
The algorithm of the turn of the spacecraft from an initial arbitrary angular position at an arbitrary angular rate to a solar-oriented attitude is investigated. Minimum essential equipment of the motion control system required for the purpose of ensuring maintenance of solar orientation is defined:...
