Integration of on-board data processing with fine attitude control for the Netherlands Astronomical Satellite /ANS/
Abstract
Attention is given to the interaction between fine attitude control and on-board data processing. Fine control modes maintained over pre-defined periods are explained together with the operational modes of the processing mode. Details of the on-board software required for certain measurements taken during normal operations are considered. A program has been developed to perform data collection for the purposes of ground-check together with a parameter list and complex monitor driven by a SOP-type command.
