Simulation of the Antenna Control System for the Space Radio Systems Facility

摘要

A design, analysis, and simulation of a hydraulic antenna-positioning control system for the Space Radio Systems Facility is presented. The design and analysis are based upon linearized models of the com¬ponents to be used for the proposed system. An analog simulation, performed to verify the design and analysis, to investigate relative signal levels, and to determine the effects of wind disturbances and nonlinearities, is described. It is shown that a system of this type can be designed to give satisfactory per¬formance in the presence of expected nonlinearities and wind disturbances.
