Battin Thesis Supervisor Accepted by Harold Y. Wachman i ARCHIVES Chairman, Departmental MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE Graduate Committee OF TECHNOLOGY OCT 2 1980 LIBRARIES, ABSTRACT AN OPTIMAL APPROACH TO COMPUTER CONTROL OF A HIGHLY COUPLED SATELLITE ATTITUDE LOOP by William Neil McCasland Submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics on September 1980 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian optimal control theory provides a uni- fied approach to controller synthesis. The pitch and array drive loop of the DMSP Block 5D spacecraft, which represents an interesting control problem because of actuator coupling, is considered as an example. A discrete-time optimal feedback control law timed to match the Block 5D's flight computer is determined. New cross feeds result that are not pres- ent in the current control laws, derived by classical compensation, which exploit the array drive motor's reaction torque on the satellite body to enhance body pointing at the expense of array error. Reaction wheel ac- tivity can, in certain cases, be reduced by a factor of five. The requirement of full state knowledge is met by an estimator developed according to discrete time Kalman filtering theory.

    The President’s Commission Implementation of United States Space Exploration Initiative PUBLIC HEARING Air Force Museum, Space Gallery 1100 Spaatz St., Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, OH Wednesday March 3 and Thursday March 4, 2004 Pete Aldridge Good afternoon. I'm Pete Aldridge. I'm the chairman of the President’s Commission on the implementation of the U.S. Space Policy. As we have shortened it to say the President's Commission on the Moon, Mars, and Beyond. We're delighted to be here and it seems only appropriate that the Commission's first hearing outside of Washington would be held here in Dayton for the workshop for controlled power flight, move from a dream to reality. It seems fitting that we come here as we move forward to sustain the journey of the Wright Brothers that began more than 100 years ago now. First let me introduce my fellow Commissioners. I began on the audience left. Carly Fiorina serves as the chairman and chief executive officer of Hewlett Packard, which she joined in July 1999. Her roots are deep in technology, having served as senior executive leadership positions in AT&T and Lucent Technologies. Michael Jackson is a Senior Vice President for ACOM Technology Corporation. He is a former U.S. Department of Transportation Deputy Secretary. Dr. Laurie Leshin. Laurie is the director of the Arizona State University Center for Meteorite studies and a professor Center for Meteorite Studies and the Professor of Geological Sciences at the university. No stranger to Dayton. General Les Lyles. General Lyles was in the Air Force for more than 35 years, rising from the Air Force ROTC program, to become a four star general and commander of Air Force materiel command.

    Global Horizons Global Horizons Final Report United States Air Force Global Science and Technology Vision AF/ST TR 13-01 21 June 2013 Distribution A. Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. SAF/PA Public Release Case No. 2013-0434 Global Horizons ii Global Horizons iii Foreword The United States Air Force (AF) is a global force. The AF exploits the unique global advantages realized from operating in, from and through the global domains of air, space, and cyberspace to support our Nation’s security interests. Global air, space and cyberspace power depend upon freedom of action in these global domains. Yet demographic, technological, and military trends forecast an increasingly complex, competitive and contested future. Our ability to address opportunities and threats is constrained by time, treasure, and talent. Global Horizons provides the AF with a collaboratively derived, near-, mid- and far-term science and technology (S&T) vision for revolutionary capabilities that anticipate future threats, mitigate vulnerabilities, and shape maximal advantage of impending and unexpected opportunities. Global Horizons is a blueprint for assuring Global Vigilance, Global Reach and Global Power across air, space, and cyberspace. Global Horizons: . Identifies and forecasts global trends (e.g., economic, demographic, S&T, military) and S&T revolutions that may radically transform threat vectors and/or opportunity spaces. Identifies and prioritizes the most promising S&T areas for dramatic change (economic, operational) in core AF functions. Articulates AF near (present-FY17), mid (FY18-22) and far (FY23-27) term S&T opportunities to fill gaps, indicating where AF should lead, follow, or watch. Prioritizes the most strategic AF problems and identifies best practices (e.g., partnerships, competitions, prizes) for motivating solutions that help overcome obstacles and achieve more rapid and economical S&T advancement.

    Aerospace World By Peter Grier Amnesty for Anthrax “Refuseniks”? Two groups that claim to represent service personnel disciplined for re- fusing anthrax vaccine shots asked President George W. Bush to grant the personnel amnesty. The organizations—Citizen Soldier and No Abuse—support the position that the shots can cause health prob- lems and have pushed many persons with unblemished records to leave the military. “President Lincoln gave amnesty to soldiers who fled under fire. It should be no problem for this Admin- istration to grant compassionate am- nesty for people whose health is un- der fire,” said retired Air Force Reserve Col.
