Review the Control Algorithm of Rotator in Phase 1

    XMLWordPrintable

    Details

      Description

      This task will review the control algorithm of rotator in Simulink model and try to translate to the math equations. This is try to understand the behavior of stop command in the tracking. In the previous test on summit, we learned that the path generator has the weird behavior if stop command was issued in the tracking. We suspect the stop command results in the wrong behavior of path generator.

            Reviewed the csa-questions-icd_comments_pjl.docx and noticed the followings:
            1. We do not think this is a problem since the Rotator control will be doing a fit (spline interpolation, likely) to determine a smooth trajectory through the provided setpoints. --> This might be a problem when we change the direction of tracking target.
            2. Note that while consecutive setpoints may instantaneously change direction, the control will smooth the rotator motion according to the dynamics of the system. The implication is that the rotator will not satisfy the inPosition criterion until it has completed the slew and changed direction.

            A related document is CDR - Software V2.pptx.

            Reviewed the H&R Software Acceptance Notes - INTERNAL DISTRIBUTION ONLY.docx and noticed the followings:
            Hard to describe, but in one occasion we had to restart everything because it got into an uncontrollable state. In another occasion we had to restart everything because Harini closed a window using the X rather than exit button… I am concerned the operability of the software is not as good as it should be.

            This looks good. I made a few minor edits to both confluence pages. Please feel free to undo any changes you dislike. (I didn't turn on notifications because Confluence is so unreliable that I save often, and I didn't want to flood anyone with change notifications).
