AIAA Propulsion and Energy Forum, 2021 2021年SLIM (Smart Lander for Investigating Moon) is JAXA’s new lunar lander mission under development. The system firing test was conducted to acquire experimental data of transient behavior of propellant pressure in order to verify the requirement for the propulsion system design and the simulation model, using real propellants and the flight like model of SLIM propulsion system. We observed three remarkable phenomena, which are (1) wide frequency distribution in pressure fluctuation, (2) water hammer when the main engine’s valves are closed, and (3) cross talking. From the evaluation of test results and the combination with simulation, we understood the physical phenomena with real propellants and the flight like model. As a result, we concluded that the current design of SLIM propulsion system is compatible to all the requirements and the expected operational mode of SLIM.

Acta Astronautica 176(6) 438-454 2020年11月1日 査読有り© 2020 IAA Onboard computation of a fuel-optimal trajectory is an indispensable technology for future lunar and planetary missions with pinpoint landings. This paper proposes a throttled explicit guidance (TEG) scheme under bounded constant thrust acceleration. TEG is capable of achieving fuel-optimal large diversions with good accuracy and can find optimal solutions. Thus far, the TEG algorithm is unique as it offers an explicit and simultaneous search method for the fuel-optimal thrust direction and thrust magnitude switching in predictor-corrector iterations. Fast numerical search is realized with a straightforward computation of seven final states (position, velocity, and the Hamiltonian) from seven unknowns (six adjoint variables for position and velocity and one final time). In addition, global convergence capability is enhanced by implementing the damped Newton's method. A number of simulations of large diversions show the excellent convergence of the TEG algorithm within at most 15 iterations from a cold start. The experimental results of the runtime measurement of the TEG algorithm support its real-time feasibility on a flight processor. These features of the TEG are suitable for onboard guidance of pinpoint landings.

日本航空宇宙学会論文集 68(2) 89-95 2020年8月1日 査読有り<p>A Fault Detection, Isolation, and Recovery (FDIR) algorithm for attitude control systems is a key technology to increasing the reliability and survivability of spacecraft. Micro/nano interplanetary spacecraft, which are rapidly evolving in recent years, also require robust FDIR algorithms. However, the implementation of FDIR algorithms to these micro/nano spacecraft is difficult because of the limitations of their resources (power, mass, cost, and so on). This paper shows a strategy of how to construct a FDIR algorithm in the limited resources, taking examples from micro deep space probe PROCYON. The strategy focuses on function redundancies and multi-layer FDIR. These ideas are integrated to suit the situation of micro/nano interplanetary spacecraft and demonstrated in orbit by the PROCYON mission. The in-orbit results are discussed in detail to emphasize the effectiveness of the FDIR algorithm. </p>

Aerospace 7(97) 97-97 2020年7月1日 査読有りJAXA’s ERG (Exploration of Energization and Radiation in Geospace) Spacecraft, which is nicknamed Arase, was launched on 20 December 2016. Arase is a spin-stabilized and Sun-oriented spacecraft. Its mission is to explore how relativistic electrons in the radiation belts are generated during space storms. Two different on-ground attitude determination algorithms are designed for the mission: A TRIAD-based algorithm that inherits from old missions and a filtering-based new algorithm. This paper, first, discusses the design of the filtering-based attitude determination algorithm, which is mainly based on an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF), specifically designed for spinning spacecraft (SpinUKF). The SpinUKF uses a newly introduced set of attitude parameters (i.e., spin-parameters) to represent the three-axis attitude of the spacecraft and runs UKF for attitude estimation. The paper then presents the preliminary attitude estimation results for the spacecraft that are obtained after the launch. The results are presented along with the encountered challenges and suggested solutions for them. These preliminary attitude estimation results show that the expected accuracy of the fine attitude estimation for the spacecraft is less than 0.5°.

Earth, Planets and Space 70(1) 102 2018年12月1日The exploration of energization and radiation in geospace (ERG) satellite, nicknamed "Arase," is the second satellite in a series of small scientific satellites created by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. It was launched on December 20, 2016, by the Epsilon launch vehicle. The purpose of the ERG project is to investigate how high-energy (over MeV) electrons in the radiation belts surrounding Earth are generated and lost by monitoring the interactions between plasma waves and electrically charged particles. To measure these physical processes in situ, the ERG satellite traverses the heart of the radiation belts. The orbit of the ERG is highly elliptical and varies due to the perturbation force: the apogee altitude is approximately 32,200-32,300 km, and the perigee altitude is 340-440 km. In this study, we introduce the scientific background for this project and four major challenges that need to be addressed to effectively carry out this scientific mission with a small satellite: (1) dealing with harsh environmental conditions in orbit and electromagnetic compatibility issues, (2) spin attitude stabilization and avoiding excitation of the libration by flexible structures, (3) attaining an appropriate balance between the mission requirements and the limited resources of the small satellite, and (4) the adaptation and use of a flexible standardized bus. In this context, we describe the development process and the flight operations for the satellite, which is currently working as designed and obtaining excellent data in its mission.

Acta Astronautica 152 299-309 2018年11月1日© 2018 IAA This study proposes a solar sailing method for angular momentum control of the interplanetary micro-spacecraft PROCYON (PRoximate Object Close flYby with Optical Navigation). The method presents a simple and facile practical application of control during deep space missions. The developed method is designed to prevent angular momentum saturation in that it controls the direction of the angular momentum by using solar radiation pressure (SRP). The SRP distribution of the spacecraft is modeled as a flat and optically homogeneous plate at a shallow sun angle. The method is obtained by only selecting a single inertially fixed attitude with a bias-momentum state. The results of the numerical analysis indicate that PROCYON's angular momentum is effectively controlled in the desired directions, enabling the spacecraft to survive for at least one month without momentum-desaturation operations by the reaction control system and for two years with very limited fuel usage of less than 10 g. The flight data of PROCYON also indicate that the modeling error of PROCYON's SRP distribution is sufficiently small at a small sun angle (<10°) of the order of 10−9 Nm in terms of its standard deviation and enables the direction of the angular momentum around the target to be maintained.

SPACEFLIGHT MECHANICS 2017, PTS I - IV 160 2615-2629 2017年When quaternions are used for representing the attitude of a spinning spacecraft in an attitude estimation filter, several problems appear due to their rapid variations. These problems include numerical integration errors and violation of the linear approximations for the filter. In this study, we propose representing the attitude of a spinning spacecraft using a set of spin parameters. These parameters consist of the spin-axis orientation unit vector in the inertial frame and the spin phase angle. This representation is advantageous as the spin axis direction components in the inertial frame do not change rapidly and the phase angle changes with a constant rate in the absence of a torque. The attitude matrix and the kinematics equations are derived in terms of spin parameters. As the equations are highly nonlinear an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) is implemented to estimate the spacecraft's attitude in spin parameters. The estimation results are compared with those of a quaternion based UKF in different scenarios using the simulated data for JAXA's ERG spacecraft.

Transactions of the Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences 60(3) 181-191 2017年© 2017 The Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences. This paper describes development strategies and on-orbit results of the attitude determination and control system (ADCS) for the world's first interplanetary micro-spacecraft, PROCYON, whose advanced mission objectives are optical navigation or an asteroid close flyby. Although earth-orbiting micro-satellites already have ADCSs for practical missions, these ADCSs cannot be used for interplanetary micro-spacecraft due to differences in the space environments of their orbits. To develop a new practical ADCS, four issues for practical interplanetary micro-spacecraft are discussed: initial Sun acquisition without magnetic components, angular momentum management using a new propulsion system, the robustness realized using a fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) system, and precise attitude control. These issues have not been demonstrated on orbit by interplanetary micro-spacecraft. In order to overcome these issues, the authors developed a reliable and precise ADCS, a FDIR system without magnetic components, and ground-based evaluation systems. The four issues were evaluated before launch using the developed ground-based evaluation systems. Furthermore, they were successfully demonstrated on orbit. The architectures and simulation and on-orbit results for the developed attitude control system are proposed in this paper.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY FOR AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE SCIENCES, AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY JAPAN 14(30) Pt_7-Pt_14 2016年<p>In this study, a crater detection method for a moon-landing system with low computational resources is proposed. The proposed method is applied to the Smart Lander for Investigating Moon (SLIM), which aims for a pin-point landing on the moon. According to this plan, surface images of the moon will be captured by a camera mounted on the space probe, and the craters are to be detected from the images. Based on the positional relationship between detected craters, the method estimates the exact flight position of the space probe. Because the computational resources of SLIM are limited, rapid and accurate crater detection must be performed using fixed-point arithmetic on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). This study proposes a crater detection method that uses principal component analysis (PCA). The computational processing for crater detection by PCA is performed by product-sum operations, which are suitable for fixed-point arithmetic. Moreover, this method is capable of parallel processing; hence high-speed processing is expected. This study not only introduces a crater detection method using PCA but also evaluates the properties of this method.</p>

航空宇宙技術 14 59-65 2015年In this paper, direction control of balloon gondola with only untwisting motor is proposed. Typically a reaction wheel and another actuator for unloading the reaction wheel are in use to control the attitude (or direction) of the gondola. Although this method can get high accuracy control performance, two actuators spend many resources of the gondola. The proposed method uses only untwisting motor installed above the gondola to rotate. This method can not realize such high accuracy control performance but realize direction control with the most simple configuration. The proposed method is applied to prototype GAPS (General Anti-Particle Spectrometer) balloon experiment in 2012. This paper shows control design for this experiment and the results of the proposed method.

SPACE TELESCOPES AND INSTRUMENTATION 2014: OPTICAL, INFRARED, AND MILLIMETER WAVE 9143 2014年SPICA (Space Infrared Telescope for Cosmology and Astrophysics) is an astronomical mission optimized for mid-and far-infrared astronomy with a 3-m class telescope which is cryogenically cooled to be less than 6 K. The SPICA mechanical cooling system is indispensable for the mission but, generates micro-vibrations which could affect to the pointing stability performances. Activities to be undertaken during a risk mitigation phase (RMP) include consolidation of micro-vibration control design for the satellite, as well as a number of breadboarding activities centered on technologies that are critical to the success of the mission. This paper presents the RMP activity results on the micro-vibration control design.

SPACE TELESCOPES AND INSTRUMENTATION 2012: OPTICAL, INFRARED, AND MILLIMETER WAVE 8442 2012年We present the current status of the development of the SPICA Coronagraph Instrument (SCI). SPICA is a next-generation 3-meter class infrared telescope, which will be launched in 2022. SCI is high-contrast imaging, spectroscopic instrument mainly for direct detection and spectroscopy of extra-solar planets in the near-to-mid infrared wavelengths to characterize their atmospheres, physical parameters and evolutionary scenarios. SCI is now under the international review process. In this paper, we present a science case of SCI. The main targets of SCI, not only for direct imaging but also for spectroscopy, are young to matured giant planets. We will also show that some of known exoplanets by ground-based direct detection are good targets for SCI, and a number of direct detection planets that are suitable for SCI will be significantly increased in the next decade. Second, a general design of SCI and a key technology including a new high-throughput binary mask coronagraph, will be presented. Furthermore, we will show that SCI is potentially capable of achieving 10(-6) contrast by a PSF subtraction method, even with a telescope pointing error. This contrast enhancement will be important to characterize low-mass and cool planets.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY FOR AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE SCIENCES, AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY JAPAN 10(28) Pf_15-Pf_19 2012年We are in progress to develop a system for automatic operation of a satellite in order to reduce human load at satellite steady operation phase. The ground station for small satellite REIMEI (INDEX : INnovative-technology Demonstration EXperiment) is used as a test bench for verification of the proposed method. In our new automatic operation system, a scheduler software as a substitutive operator manages all the operations through a unified procedure, including sending command, receiving telemetry, and driving antenna in accordance with an operation time line which is prepared before the operation pass. The scheduler also performs diagnostics of satellite anomaly based upon the received telemetry data and status of the ground station. In case that some anomaly of the satellite is detected, the scheduler initiates an emergency schedule that was prepared depending on the emergency level. The automatic operation system is nearly completed for downlink operations of the data recorder that account for 75% of REIMEI steady operation. This approach is very effective to reduce psychological and physical load of operators.

Advances in Space Research 48(2) 323-333 2011年7月15日We present the SPICA Coronagraphic Instrument (SCI), which has been designed for a concentrated study of extra-solar planets (exoplanets). SPICA mission provides us with a unique opportunity to make high contrast observations because of its large telescope aperture, the simple pupil shape, and the capability for making infrared observations from space. The primary objectives for the SCI are the direct coronagraphic detection and spectroscopy of Jovian exoplanets in infrared, while the monitoring of transiting planets is another important target. The specification and an overview of the design of the instrument are shown. In the SCI, coronagraphic and non-coronagraphic modes are aplicable for both an imaging and a spectroscopy. The core wavelength range and the goal contrast of the coronagraphic mode are 3.5-27 μm, and 10 , respectively. Two complemental designs of binary shaped pupil mask coronagraph are presented. The SCI has capability of simultaneous observations of one target using two channels, a short channel with an InSb detector and a long wavelength channel with a Si:As detector. We also give a report on the current progress in the development of key technologies for the SCI. © 2011 COSPAR. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. 31. -6

日本航空宇宙学会論文集 = Journal of the Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences 58(682) 309-315 2010年11月5日A radio astronomical observatory satellite ``ASTRO-G'', which will be launched in 2012, has two characteristics: flexible appendages and high-speed and high-precision attitude maneuvering. Because of these two antithetical features, attitude control system (ACS) of ASTRO-G becomes quite challenging in comparison with those of past satellites. For such a satellite, feedforward control which is robust to model identification error is considered to be important. Nil-Mode-Exciting (NME) profiler is one of references for anti-vibration, which is designed to excite no flexible modes, and thus its robustness is considered to be of most significant. NME profiler, however, is relatively slow reference because of negligible high frequency component. In this paper, we propose Modified NME profiler which is relatively fast reference designed by convolution of NME profiler and Input Shaper. Some anti-vibration experiments are carried out to show the effectiveness of the proposed reference.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY FOR AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE SCIENCES, AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY JAPAN 8(27) Po_4_1-Po_4_6 2010年A space gravitational wave antenna, DECIGO (DECI-hertz interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory) will provide fruitful insights into the universe, particularly on dark energy, the formation mechanism of supermassive black holes, and the inflation of the universe. In the current pre-conceptual design, DECIGO will be comprised of 4 interferometer units; each interferometer unit will be realized by formation flight of three drag-free spacecraft with 1000 km separation. Since DECIGO will be an extremely challenging mission with high-precision formation flight, it is important to increase the technical feasibility before its planned launch in 2024. Thus, we are planning two milestone missions. DECIGO pathfinder (DPF) is the first milestone mission for DECIGO, and key components for DPF are being tested on ground and in orbit. In this article, we review the conceptual design and current status of DECIGO and DPF.

2010 IEEE-ION POSITION LOCATION AND NAVIGATION SYMPOSIUM PLANS 1287-1294 2010年 査読有りJAXA has been developing a system to provide a long duration, good quality microgravity environment based on a capsule, named the Balloon-based Operation Vehicle, that can be released from a balloon. In this paper we will describe the Balloon-based operation vehicle itself and the experiments using GPS performed - in cooperation with Delft University of Technology - on the gondola of the balloon in 2008 (single baseline estimation) and 2009 (full attitude determination and relative positioning). The attitude calculated using raw observations from a GPS receiver during the 2009 experiment is compared with Sun Aspect Sensors' and Geomagnetic Aspect Sensor's results and moreover with the attitude as provided by the receiver itself.

CLASSICAL AND QUANTUM GRAVITY 26(9) 2009年5月DECIGO pathfinder (DPF) is a milestone satellite mission for DECIGO (DECi-hertz Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory), which is a future space gravitational wave antenna. DECIGO is expected to provide fruitful insights into the universe, particularly about dark energy, the formation mechanism of supermassive black holes and the inflation of the universe. Since DECIGO will be an extremely challenging mission, which will be formed by three drag-free spacecraft with 1000 km separation, it is important to increase the technical feasibility of DECIGO before its planned launch in 2024. Thus, we are planning to launch two milestone missions: DPF and pre-DECIGO. In this paper, we review the conceptual design and current status of the first milestone mission, DPF.

60th International Astronautical Congress 2009, IAC 2009 2 1096-1100 2009年 査読有りAfter the success of remotely-sensed global observation by SELENE orbiter, Japan has been focusing on the in-situ exploration of the Moon. To know more about the Moon, numerous missions have to be launched to the Moon for surveying different interesting places. Naturally the cost of single mission must be reduced. Japan has been considering a landing mission for about ten years as a next mission to the Moon. This has a few tons of weight and costs a few million euros including the launch vehicle because it also features the future manned mission. Obviously it is not suitable for scientific in-situ exploration, which must be conducted repeatedly. The authors have been studying a small lander on the Moon or the planets in order to enable the multiple in-situ explorations cheaply. With the technologies developed in our studies, the mission named SLIM (Smart Lander for Investigating Moon) has been proposed to demonstrate an autonomous, accurate and soft landing on the specified place of the Moon. SLIM is also helpful to increase the success probability of the nation-led flagship landing mission when it is conducted as a precursor. This paper describes the proposed SLIM mission.

日本航空宇宙学会論文集 56(652) 203-210 (J-STAGE)-210 2008年 査読有りFor astronomical observing missions by formation flying satellites in LEO, satellites require control force to keep the relative position, against Keplerian orbit in an inertia coordinate frame. Since satellites require propulsion systems, i.e. thrusters, but the use of thrusters limits the mission lifetime associated with the finite fuel supply. Thus the authors propose the formation flight using electromagnetic force. In this method, the electromagnetic force between super-conducting magnets are used for the relative position control. This method has the obvious advantage of no-fuel to acquire control force. Since such large magnetic moment in earth magnetism generates large disturbance torque, the magnetic moments should be sinusoidal with shorter period than that of the orbit period. Therefore, this paper proposes the relative position control by changing the phase difference between sinusoidal magnetic moments. The proposed method was evaluated with numerical simulations and the results shows the feasibility of the proposed formation flight.
