A MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF THE DYNAMICS AND CONTROL OF A GYROSCOPIC PLATFORM MOUNTED ON BOARD OF AN AERIAL VEHICLE

摘要

The work deals with simplified mathematical models of uni-, bi-, and triaxial gyroscopic platforms mounted on board of an aerial vehicle. The platforms can be used as a reference of the head for detecting, tracing and laser illuminating of a ground target or as the base of a television or thermovision camera. The models permit monitoring the platforms, controlling and correcting them, if affected by external disturbances and kinematic interaction with the base (i.e. board of the aerial vehicle).
