when multi actuator, multi variate, control loop fail it is much worse than open loop control.

UB saar, the composite image is by stitching images on multiple passes, Under similar lighting condition. The cylindrical artifact is due to stitching scaling errors from adjoining image patches.

Haridas

That spreadsheet calculation gives out boundries for an open loop system. There is no evidence of IMU (inertial measurement unit) malfunction (it's any way very very unlikely). So engine thrust mismatching will be easily cancelled out by close loop control. IMHO the close loop control will fail if :...

Unpredictable tempest type winds (strong downdraft) of mountains make light & slow HTT40 a less useful craft, even unnecessary risk.

After thorough testing & confirmation of logic in C etc, final coding is converted to manually written machine code embedded in Space qualified ROMs/PLAs. Wow hearing about PLA after so many decades. Almost forgotten it existance. I built my redundent INS & Flight control system in IIT dill...

Haridas

Ramana Sir, I share your thoughts. Trajectory started showing significant deviations soon after the initiation of transition. But my doubt is, that if 800N engines had variable thrust capability, why were only two diagonal engines used for fine braking instead of lowering the thrusts of all four en...

Since we dont have a Orbiter, can we send 2 Landers? one are the equatorial plane, and the other at South pole. Both of them can communicate via CY2. Let FAC do their thing and ISRO plan for the new lander. Still need a bus to carry the lander and then de orbit. Why is bus necessary? The lander has...

I assumed its sec:hundredths of second. Usually telemetry is in millisecs that is reported as Secs: xxx So here they are reporting as secs: 0.xx0 Eg. 19 Secs 550 millisecs, 20.000, 20 secs 050 millisecs They probably have better data but the graph divisions are like that Hours minutes is very slow....

No sir. It corresponds to power inputted into the radio receiver input by the the receiver's high gain dish antenna. It depends if you measure prior to down conversion, as you said, or the IF power. It's not clear from DSN. It's a radios rating, always corresponding to signal level seen at its inpu...

2. With a 30 footer , the monn's radiation ( Sun Noise reflected by whole Moon disc ) is in the range of -106 to -108 dbm on Full Moon day. So what was seen as -114dbm etc is the radiation noise ... not signal. It is about halfway between Full Moon and Amavasya. Beg to differ, carrier can be dug up...

Haridas

Mort sir they have to look at the received tone characteristics before they request data Yes, I guess they're just looking for a carrier. No data is being sent up. In extreamly poor Signal to Noise ratio (SNR) signal (often due to link budget exhaustion) one can reduce the receiver bandwidth to few...

Pingreji pls: what is an up signal and what does -141 dB mean? Compared to 1 watt? And is that the source (because receiver power should depend on solid angle of capture), hain? Like if I got this much power with this much area, and I know it came from this source, then the omni-directional source ...

Need a NG&C expert here. The AIAA paper says in 2nd para page 5, that The INS after updating the state vector is used for the first burn. During the long coast phase also, the attitude and gyro drifts are updated using star tracker. The accelerometer bias is also updated during the long coast p...

Haridas

All these say that it is recoverable when the sun is sufficiently up (over the next week!) But if the comms are destroyed, then it cannot be instructed to correct itself. So the original comm failure is still the big catch. There HAD to be one more error after the fully automatic system took over, ...

UBCN diagnosis (posted b4) of "Too Much Thrust" (on one thruster was the quote) means combustion instability. Liquid fuel is metered through a choked nozzle with sufficient pressure ratio to prevent feedback from the combustor to the fuel source. So it is probably not because of too much ...

Paper says that CY-1 (not CY-2) was forced to raise orbit from 100km to 200km to reduce heating. Is this radiant heat from lunar day? Wow! I thought it only reached 200C which should cause radiant heating only like an average day in Sriharikota summer, hain? Doesn't the orbiter rotate to distribute...

Haridas

UB, They are using hypergolic liquid fuel and can be precisely metered by a valve. I think the current draw is monitored to give status. But recall it takes > 2 minutes for signals to go back and forth Control software shouldnt use fuel consumption based thust estimation, but by directly measuring ...

So they do not want our President to overfly their territory because of 'atrocities' etc. But they are importing life saving medicines. What happened to the atrocities then?

Well then now is the chance, right? The "Ghastly Trolls" should now dig up old footage of the Bagla's antics and put it up for all to see how much he has "done for ISRO." That Doppler curve shows steady deceleration during the rough braking phase. If the craft were tumbling then...

The whole purpose of Vikram and Pragyan was to determine water if there was water in the lunar soil and H3. This science discovery was a loss not just for India, but the whole of humanity.

Still wondering about video of these events. What limits real time transmissions. Weight penalty, power management, transmission bandwidth? HD video requires few Mbit/sec bandwidth. Similar to Geo Sat satellite that are very heavy compared to orbiter. Now the distance is 10 times more, so link budg...

Amber G, ISRO is known for what it has achieved. So are the isotopes the only way to get power? I understand the power source has to be light in weight. So I am not wondering why we not have a giant battery pack. Battery has to be recharged and where and how will the recharging happen = from Solar ...

Haridas

^^^Yes, I remember playing with some isotopes as an undergraduate that were primarily alpha emitters, But I didn't know that Pu238 had no gammas . I would still think any RTG would create noise in radio transmit-receive, as many digital transmissions are near thermal noise levels at a given bandwid...

Then there is the 'lunar capture', which leads to a new set of perigees and apogees around the moon, until it sets in at a more or less 100km o...

Any particular advantage/disadvantage of MMW vs Ku-band seekers? 1) Wiki tells me that MMW seekers suffer more atmospheric attenuation. Is that why they're not preferred for A2A or SAM applications? 2) If so, why is MMW preferred for an ATGM role vs Ku-band? Better resolution? mmW seeker is ideal f...

My guess is that R-27 are IR guided long range missiles perhaps with datalink, 100km?. Though can be ultra long range RF seeker missiles, 170km? IAF always had interest in VLR BVR AAMs since 1980s. But Pak will also get something equivalent from China We need to invest in other aids like DIRCM, Sat...

I think its homegrown - might even be the same MMW seeker as that of Akash-1S IIRC first candidate for mmW seeker is for Nag missile. Is there any news of the mmW sensor being ready for test or close to deployment on any missile? Akash-1S is with seeker/sensor, but I am sure it is not mmW seeker ye...

Thanks, HDji. I think the point I was missing is that the cryo stage burn is fairly long and that you want to finish the burn and chuck the engine ASAP, not carry it to great heights. Mental orbital mechanics is not up to figuring out the effect of a burn when it is not completed at perigee. I supp...
