In order to communicate with a ground station, the tracking profile design problem for a directional antenna system is considered. Because the motions of the gimbal angles in the antenna system affect the image quality, the main object is to minimize the motion of the gimbal angles during the satellite's imaging phase. For this goal, parameter optimization problems in the imaging and maneuver phases are formulated separately in the body-frame, and solved sequentially. Also, several mechanical constraints, such as the limitation of the gimbal angle and rate, are considered in the problems. The tracking profiles of the gimbal angles in the maneuver phases are designed with N-th order polynomials, to continuously connect the tracking profiles between two imaging phases. The results confirm that if the vector trace of the desired antenna-pointing vector is within the antenna's beam-width angle, motions of the gimbal angles are not required in the corresponding imaging phase. Also, through numerical examples, it is shown that motion of the gimbal angles in the imaging phase can be minimized by the proposed design process.

One of the frequent problems in the stabilized gimbal system is the rejection of disturbances associated with moving components. Very often such disturbances have non-linear characteristics. In a typical gimbal system, each gimbal and platform are connected by a mutual bearing which induces inevitable friction. Particularly, the non-linear Coulomb friction causes position errors as well as slow responses that lead to unfavorable performance. In this paper, a modified PID controller that is augmented by Coulomb friction estimator is presented. Through constantly estimating the Coulomb friction torque, it is applied to the output of the existing PID controller. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is evaluated through a series of experiments.

A camera module that gathers visual information via aerial observation reconnaissance is equipped inside a gimbal structure. This gimbal structure system must reduce dynamic responses in order to obtain clear images under all circumstances. Among many design specifications for this system, there is MIL-STD-810G as a shock standard. This specification indicates a limitation of the acceleration of the camera module under a base shock excitation on the gimbal structure. The satisfaction of this condition can usually be proved by experiment, because it includes bearings and dynamic isolators made of rubber. Numerical analysis must be proposed for design improvement of the gimbal structure. To achieve this goal, transient response analysis for the base shock excitation was performed using the finite element method. Experimental results were compared with numerical solutions and it is shown that the present method is useful.

Control Moment Gyro (CMG) has been used as an indirect actuator of a single-wheel robot system GYROBO, developed at Chungnam National University. The flip motion of the gimbal system produces the gyroscopic motion onto the body system while the body motion also produces the gyroscopic motion onto the gimbal system inversely. In this paper, the intuitive equation of the inverse gyroscopic effect is derived as the direct relation between the rate of the body system and the rate of the gimbal system. Experiments on the inverse gyroscopic effect under the chaotically generated disturbance are conducted. Experimental data are approximated by a linear equation using the least square method.

The model of azimuth driving servo system with a flexible antenna in a prototype gimbal has been derived in this work. The validity of the model is verified by comparing the result of the model with that of experiment. It is found that one should consider an antenna as a flexible body in case of modeling the dynamics of the gimbal with an antenna. It is also known that the effect of reducing backlash magnitude for extending the bandwidth in the system with a flexible antenna is smaller than the system with a stiff antenna. It is thought that the model-based design optimization of the gimbal with an antenna will be possible by virtue of the derived model, when a weight reduction and a bandwidth extension are required.

EO TGP(Electro-Optical Targeting Pod) is an optical tracking system which has various functions such as target tracking and image stabilization and LOS(Line of Sight) change. Especially, it is very important to move the LOS into a interest point for joystick command. When pilot move joystick in order to observe different scene, EO TGP gimbals should be operated properly. Generally, most EOTS just operate corresponding gimbal for joystick command. For example, if pilot input horizontal command in order to observe right hand screen, it just drive azimuth gimbal at any position. But in the screen, the image dosen't move in a horizontal direction because gimbal structure is Euler angle. And image rotation is occurred by elevation gimbal angle. So we need to move Pitch gimbal. So in the paper, we designed LOS moving algorithm which convert LOS command to gimbal velocity command to move LOS properly. We modeled a differential kinematic equation and then change the joystick command into velocity command of gimbals. This algorithm generate velocity command of each gimbal for same horizontal direction command. Finally, we verified performance through MATLAB/Simulink.

In this paper, the authors consider a gimbal system in which a camera is installed to reconnoiter the objects or targets. The issue for this considered system is to obtain information with good quality always. To achieve given objective, it is necessary to control the gimbal system with accurate rotation angle and speed. In this paper, the authors design a robust control system based on $H_{\infty}$ control framework. The controller is designed using a plant model obtained by experiment and simulation. And the experiment result with good control performance is presented.

CMG의 발생 토크는 김블의 각속도에 비례하고 위성의 자세제어에 직접적인 영향을 미치기 때문에 김블의 토크 리플 저감이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 토크 리플의 발생 원인을 베어링에 의한 마찰 불균형, 모터의 자기장과 상전류 불균형으로 가정하여 이를 수학적으로 모델링한다. 김블의 정속 구동 데이터를 통해 모델링의 파라미터를 추정하고 이를 이용하여 피드포워드 제어로 적용할 경우 영향성을 분석한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 토크 리플과 각속도 변동이 저감되는 것을 확인하여 외란 모델링을 이용한 외란 저감 기법을 제시한다.

로켓 추진에 의한 동력 비행 중 비행체의 자세제어를 위해, 대기권내 비행에 있어서는 공력비행 조정익으로 조종할 수 있으나 공기가 희박한 높은 고도나 대기권 밖에서의 비행은 추력벡터제어에 의존할 수밖에 없다. 추력벡터제어 방법으로 현재 여러 가지 장치가 개발되어 사용되고 있는데 본 연구는 로켓이 비행하는 동안 김발에 의해 연결된 로켓엔진 전체를 움직여 엔진에서 발생한 추력의 방향을 조종하여 로켓의 자세를 제어하는 김발엔진구동 추력벡터제어방식에 대한 내용을 다루었다. 로켓에 적용 가능한 김발엔진 구동장치로는 전기유압식, 전기기계식, 공압식 장치 등이 있으나 큰 동력이 요구되는 시스템에서는 대부분 출력 대 무게비가 높은 전기유압식 구동장치가 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 KSR-III의 추력벡터제어를 위해 사용되는 전기유압식 김발엔진 서보구동시스템을 상세모델링하였고 이에 기초하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그리고 시뮬레이션 결과와 실제 시스템을 대상으로 시험한 결과를 비교하여 모델을 검증하였다.
