AODCS Pointing Requirement

[SeanTedesco]

Introduction

AODCS is required to know the pointing accuracy as required by the PAYLOAD. While the PAYLOAD will want to have a pointing error of zero, it is infeasible for AODCS to achieve this. We then must determine what is the maximum pointing error that is still acceptable for all PAYLOAD requirements.

Supporting Information 📖

Factors to go into this internal pointing requirement include:

• Minimizing Motion Blur
• Ensuring ARO is still in the image captured by the PAYLOAD.
• Feedback from the CSDC regarding the PAYLOAD included: “If the ground blur is less than ½ a pixel, It’s irrelevant”.
• CSDC Requirement: TO BE INCLUDED

Next Steps 🚶

What we have to determine:

• Field of View
• Pixel Size

Definition of Done 💯

An angle specified in degrees that will minimize ground blur and ensure the ARO is within the field of view of the PAYLOAD.
