Velocity estimation on a dual-spin spacecraft
Abstract
The problem of estimating the changes in velocity during the various dV maneuvers of a dual-spin spacecrft is examined. A concise estimator suitable for on-board computer implementation is then developed to provide dV estimates based on the measurements obtained from two asymmetrically mounted accelerometers.
