E-Region Auroral Ionosphere Model

The complex nature of magnetospheric processes cause a wide range of dynamic variations in the auroral zone, which are difficult to forecast. Knowledge of electron concentrations in this highly turbulent region is of particular importance because it determines the propagation conditions for the radio waves. In this work we introduce the numerical model of the auroral E-region, which evaluates density variations of the 10 ionospheric species and 39 reactions initiated by both the solar extreme UV radiation and the magnetospheric electron precipitation. The chemical reaction rates differ in more than ten orders of magnitude, resulting in the high stiffness of the ordinary differential equations system considered, which was solved using the high-performance Gear method. The AIM-E model allowed us to calculate the concentration of the neutrals NO, N(4S), and N(2D), ions + + + + + 4 + 2 + 2 N ,N2 , NO ,O2 ,O ( S), O ( D), and O ( P), and electrons Ne, in the whole auroral zone in the Citation: Nikolaeva, V.; Gordeev, E.; 90-150 km altitude range in real time. -

Lasercom Uncertainty Modeling and Optimization Simulation (LUMOS)
Clements, E. et al. (2019): JoSS, Vol. 8, No. 1, pp. 815–836 (Peer-reviewed article available at www.jossonline.com) www.adeepakpublishing.com www. JoSSonline.com Lasercom Uncertainty Modeling and Optimization Simulation (LUMOS): A Statistical Approach to Risk-Tolerant Systems Engineering for Small Satellites Emily Clements, Jeffrey Mendenhall, and David Caplan MIT Lincoln Laboratory Lexington, Massachusetts US Kerri Cahoy Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts US Abstract In contrast to large-budget space missions, risk-tolerant platforms such as nanosatellites may be better posi- tioned to exchange moderate performance uncertainty for reduced cost and improved manufacturability. New uncertainty-based systems engineering approaches such as multidisciplinary optimization require the use of inte- grated performance models with input distributions, which do not yet exist for complex systems, such as laser communications (lasercom) payloads. This paper presents our development of a statistical, risk-tolerant systems engineering approach and apply it to nanosatellite-based design and architecture problems to investigate whether adding a statistical element to systems engineering enables improvements in performance, manufacturability, and cost. The scope of this work is restricted to a subset of nanosatellite-based lasercom systems, which are particu- larly useful given current momentum to field Earth-observing nanosatellite constellations and increasing chal- lenges for data retrieval. We built uncertainty-based lasercom -

We expanded the frequency sweep range in order to cover large Doppler shift on orbit. The GPS receiver was modified to output pseudorange data with accurate time tag. We tested the performance in low earth orbits by means of a GPS simulator. The range error caused by the receiver is measured to be 0.9 meter in RMS. Receiver was on-boarded on INDEX (“REIMEI”) satellite, which was launched in 2005. Cold start positioning was confirmed repeatedly to finish within 30 minutes on orbit. The orbit determination was performed to evaluate the random position error of GPS receiver by means of the residual error. The random error of GPS position is as large as 2 meter for PDDP=2.5 on orbit. The RMS value of range error is evaluated to be 0.6m from the flight data. -
