AOCS Design and Manufacturing

Tensor Tech delivers professional AOCS solutions customized to meet the unique needs of each space mission through AOCS system design and manufacturing services, along with AOCS component manufacturing services. Additionally, we provide AOCS integration services covering mechanical and electrical interfaces (EMC, wiring, and functional tests, etc.), AOCS configuration, sensor calibration, controller tuning, alignment of reference frames for each component, and polarity checks to ensure optimal performance for the AOCS. Drawing on our extensive experience in AOCS technology, Tensor Tech commits to delivering excellent service with assured quality, high reliability, robustness, and cost-effectiveness.

Mass Properties Measurement

Mass Properties, such as total mass, Center of Mass (COM) location, and Inertia Tensor, are vital for configuring the Attitude Determination and Control System (ADCS). Tensor Tech offers precise Mass Properties measurement services through our ADCS TestBed for customer spacecraft and Devices under Test (DUT) upon client request.

Jitter Analysis and Measurement

In optical payload missions, especially for remote sensing satellites, achieving precise relative pointing accuracy is crucial for defining Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) and its budgets. The Relative Pointing Error (RPE) is primarily affected by moving components like reaction wheels or control moment gyros on the satellite. Determining MTF requires a system-level requirement analysis, achieved through simulations and physical measurements on the integrated system. Tensor Tech specializes in delivering accurate Relative Pointing Error (RPE) estimates for mission analysis to our clients.

AOCS Software in the Loop (SIL)

With Tensor Tech's Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS) Software-in-the-loop (SIL) simulation tool - TYF (Test as You Fly), clients can accurately predict the motion control performance of their missions. This indispensable capability equips clients with the means to make informed, system-level decisions at the initial design stage of their projects.

AOCS Processor in the Loop (PIL)

For improved precision in AOCS simulation results, Tensor Tech offers a specialized service employing the Processor-in-the-loop (PIL) toolkit. This tool is designed to simulate the firmware behavior of the AOCS computer and its components. It is particularly beneficial for clients using third-party or in-house developed components. The PIL simulation allows accurate prediction of AOCS performance, considering real-time conditions. Moreover, it facilitates efficient troubleshooting and resolution of identified issues.
