History

Concept

The first time an artificial satellite was drawn in fiction(English edition）Short story, "(English edition）].This storyThe atlantic monthly Made into a series from 1869^[2][3]..This concept first appeared in 1879.Jules Verneof"(English edition）].

1903/,Konstantin TsiolkovskyIs "Space Exploration with Reaction Utilization Device" (Russian: Exploration of world spaces by jet instruments) Is published.This is for launching a spaceshipRocket engineeringIt was the first academic paper on.Tsiolkovsky is required for the smallest orbit of the earthOrbital speedIs calculated as 8km / s,Liquid fuelIt was usedMulti-stage rocketIf so, it is achievable.Also heLiquid hydrogenとLiquid oxygenSuggested the use of.

1928 years,スロベニア Of(English edition） The Problem of Space Travel — The Rocket Motor(German: Das Problem der Befahrung des Weltraums — der Raketen-Motor) Was published and described space travel and human permanent stay.He conceived a space station and calculated the geostationary orbit of the station.He also described in detail that artificial satellites can be used for peaceful and military observations on the ground, about the significance of special conditions in outer space for scientific experiments, and the use of geostationary satellites for communications, etc. Also mentioned.

1945 years,Arthur C. ClarkIs a magazine(English edition）Above, using a communication satelliteMass communicationDescribed in detail the possibility of^[4]..Clark also investigated plans for artificial satellite launches, possible satellite orbits, and proposed that three geostationary orbit satellites cover the entire globe.

Birth of artificial satellite

Second World WarDeveloped inGermany OfV2 rocketWith its technology and its engineers, rocket technology in the United States and the Soviet Union has made rapid progress, and artificial satellites are becoming a reality.

United States of America1945/Than(English edition）Under the circumstances, we have been considering the launch of an artificial satellite.1946/U.S. Air Force in MayLand InstituteReport, "Preliminary Design of Experimental Orbiting Spacecraft" (Preliminary Design of a Experimental World-Circling Spaceship ) States that "artificial satellites equipped with suitable equipment can be one of the most powerful scientific tools of the 20th century."^[5]I didn't think artificial satellites had military significance, but rather scientific, political, and propaganda at the time.US Secretary of Defense The1954/"I don't know about domestic artificial satellite plans" (I know of no American satellite program)^[6].

1955/7/29,White House The1958/Announced that it will launch an artificial satellite by the spring of.this isVanguard planBecame known as.On July 7, the same year, the Soviet Union1957/Announced that it will launch an artificial satellite by the fall of.

Sergey KorolevAnd assistant(English edition）Of the Soviet Union led bySputnik programBegins,1957/10/4The first artificial satellite "Sputnik 1Was launched^[7]..Sputnik 1 helped confirm the density of the upper atmosphere by analyzing its orbital changes, and provided data on radio signal disturbances in the ionosphere.The satellite's airframe was filled with pressurized nitrogen, and temperature data sent to Earth revealed that meteorites penetrated the airframe's surface and reduced internal pressure.This is the firstMeteoroidIt was the detection of.

This sudden successThe United States of AmericaToSputnik shockAnd then the fierceness of the United States and the Soviet UnionSpace development competitionWas connected to.

In June 1, three and a half years after Sputnik 3, the U.S. Air Force(English edition）Created a list of 115 artificial satellites using the resources of^[8].

Space surveillance network

The United States Space Surveillance Network (SNN) has been tracking space objects since 1957, and as of 2008 it has been tracking more than 8,000 artificial objects.The number of man-made objects in orbitT5 from artificial satelliteskilogramThere are various parts such as rocket parts.These 7 percent are artificial satellites in operation, and everything elseSpace debrisIs^[9].

SNN is tracking objects over 10 cm in diameter.US Strategic ArmyIs primarily interested in active satellites, but is also tracking space debris that will re-enter so as not to mistake it for a missile approach.

Non-military satellite service

There are basically three types of non-military artificial satellite operations.^[10].

Fixed satellite service

(English edition）Processes hundreds of billions of voice, video, and data communications tasks between specific points across countries and continents.

Mobile satellite system

Mobile satellite systems are used not only as navigation systems for cars, ships, planes and people in remote areas, but also for communicating with other mobile and fixed communication devices in different parts of the world.

Scientific observation satellite (commercial / non-profit)

Scientific observation satellites include meteorological information and ground information.Earth scienceof,oceanographyof,Atmospheric physicsUsed for surveys.

• Sun-synchronous orbit —— An orbit in which the angle between the orbital surface of the artificial satellite and the sun's rays is always constant.Because sunlight is always available and the angle of the sun's rays is always constant with respect to the surface of the earth.Earth observation satelliteIs used for.

Pseudo orbit

Artificial satellite configuration

The artificial satellite system is "Satellite system"When"Ground support systemConsists of^[18], Between the twoUplinkとDownlinkIs done.The satellite system is a "satellite" for carrying out missions specific to that satellite.Mission equipment"Whenelectricity,communication,Attitude controlRequired for basic functions such as "Bus equipmentIt is composed of.In addition, the ground support system consists of equipment for tracking artificial satellites, acquiring data, and operating and controlling them.^[19].

Satellite bus department

TTC system

TTC is a telemetry (transmission of satellite operation status to the ground), tracking (transmission and reception of orbit measurement signals), and command (operation commands such as power on / off of equipment and mode switching).However, in recent years, the number of cases where commands are automatically transmitted by the installed computer is increasing, and the TTC system is called the C & DH system (command data handling system).^[19].

Power supply system

• Solar cell,battery,, consists of a power controller.The solar cell is mounted on the surface of the airframe or on the solar cell paddle.
• Once smallReactorHas been used for artificial satellites, but now it is almostSolar cellIs used.Also, without the solar cell,batteryThere are also only satellites.
• Solar cells may not be usable on space probes, but in that caseAtomic batteryPrepare an alternative power supply.

Posture control system

Artificial satellites are the strain of the earth's gravitational field, the attraction of the moon and the sun,Solar windThe attitude gradually changes due to minute forces other than the gravitational force of the earth, such as dilute air molecules.Posture stabilization is roughly divided into "spin attitude stabilization method" and "three-axis attitude stabilization method". The former was often used in the early stages of space development because it has a simple structure and does not require special equipment. The shape is limited to a cylinder, and the solar cell can only be attached to the surface of the cylinder.The latter has the advantage that the posture direction can be freely selected and a large vertical solar cell paddle can be attached, but it also has the disadvantage that thermal control becomes complicated.^[19].

Propulsion system

• Even if the satellite is put into the planned orbit, if it is left unattended, the earth'sGravity anomalyAndSolar windThe trajectory gradually changes due to the disturbance caused by.so that,ThrusterIs operated to control the orbit.
• Reconnaissance satelliteIn the case of, it is also used to make the necessary orbital changes for reconnaissance.
• Geostationary satellite, this means a Geostationary transfer orbitからGeostationary orbitTo change the trajectory toApogee kick motorIs installed, but it also constitutes a propulsion system.
• It is also used to finally increase orbit altitude so that geostationary satellites have reached the end of their life and debris does not occupy valuable geostationary orbit.It can also be used to create a safe inrush orbit when an orbiting satellite falls to Earth.

Structure system

Satellites receive large loads, vibrations, and shocks during launch and separation.Therefore, it is necessary to design the airframe so as to reduce the burden on the on-board equipment.There are structures such as a central cylindrical type, a panel support type, and a truss type, and they may be composed of a composite of these.Where strength is required as a material,TitaniumEtc. are used^[19].

Thermal control system

Satellites are exposed to harsh high to low temperature environments in outer space.Also, in outer space, which is a vacuumradiationbyWaste heatThere is only.Therefore, in order for the mounted equipment to operate well, it is necessary to design it well so that it falls within the operating temperature.ActualhardwareWill be realized by making full use of the following means.

• --Insulation material.Suppress heat in and out.
• heat pipe --Transfer excessive heat dissipation from the heat source to the radiator.
• Radiator --A thermal radiator.
• heater --Warm the equipment so that it is not overcooled.

On geostationary satellitessummer solstice,winter solstice,spring equinox,Autumn equinoxUnder the conditions of, the condition of sunlight and from the earthradiationDesign analysis is performed using a finite element satellite structural model.

Mission department

Observation equipment

Observation equipment to realize the mission.For details, refer to the item of each artificial satellite.

transponder

transponderIs a device installed in the case of communication / broadcasting satellites.A transmitter / receiver that receives radio waves emitted from the ground, converts frequencies, amplifies high power, and sends them back to the ground.

Antenna system

antennaIs a gateway for radio waves and plays an important role in broadcasting / communication missions and radar observation satellites.

Ground control system

Satellite abandonment

As the satellite's mission nears completion, there are options to move the satellite out of its current orbit, leave it in place, or move it to graveyard orbit.Early artificial satellites rarely had the function of changing orbits due to budgetary reasons.For example1958/Was launched intoVanguard 1Is the fourth satellite put into orbit,2009/8It still exists in orbit and is the longest satellite in orbit.^[20].

Currently, satellites in geosynchronous orbit, including meteorological satellites, are equipped with thrusters to control attitude and orbit.When the thruster runs out of fuel, the satellite will not be able to maintain a geosynchronous orbit, so at the end of its life, it will be in a higher orbit from the geosynchronous orbit.Graveyard orbit),Stoppage·Discard.However, some of them could not get out of orbit for some reason,Space debrisSome satellites turn into^[21].AirbusEtc. are considering a service to catch and drop an old artificial satellite that cannot move^[22].

When dropping while controlling on the ground, it is on the South PacificPole of inaccessibility(Point Nemo) To drop^[23].

There are also plans to extend the life of the spacecraft by refueling and repairing it.^[24].
