Abstract

In view of the complex working environment of space astronomical telescopes, the influence of various disturbance sources on the imaging quality cannot be ignored. This paper focuses on compensating for the space telescope line-of-sight (LOS) deviation and suppressing the low-frequency disturbance problem in astronomical observation. A closed-loop control method based on dual-port adaptive internal model control (AIMC) for the fine image stabilization system (FISS) was proposed. To be specific, the fine guidance sensor (FGS) as the high-precision detection unit of the FISS calculates the telescope LOS deviation and sends it to the controller unit in real time. The controller unit drives the large-aperture fast steering mirror (FSM), which performs high-precision two-dimensional rotation to compensate for the telescope LOS deviation, according to the dual-port AIMC control algorithm. Moreover, the dual-port AIMC control method adds an AIMC loop on the basis of the feedback loop and adjusts the filter parameters adaptively according to the target angular velocity of the FSM, achieving higher disturbance suppression capability. The experimental results verify that the control method proposed can effectively compensate for the LOS deviation and suppress the composite frequency disturbance. In the 0-8 Hz frequency band, the power spectral density integral values of the star centroid deviation in the X and Y directions of the FGS are, respectively, suppressed by 97.38% and 98.38%.
