计划和执行SOFIA的航空天文任务

Planning and Executing Airborne Astronomy Missions for SOFIA

Michael A. K. Gross, Ralph Y. Shuping

摘要:

SOFIA是一个2.5米的机载红外望远镜,安装在波音747 SP飞机上。由于望远镜的尺寸很大,在望远镜的方位上只有几度的方位角。这意味着飞机的航向基本上与望远镜的测量觇标相关,并且实现给定任务所需的地面轨迹非常复杂,并且取决于要执行的观测的坐标,持续时间和顺序。我们设计并实现了一个飞行管理基础设施(FMI)产品,以便在存在大量外部约束(例如,受限空域,国际边界,望远镜的高度限制,飞机性能,高度风和环境温度)的情况下计划和执行此类任务。我们提出了一个概述FMI,包括过程,约束和基本算法用于计划和执行SOFIA任务。

英文摘要:

SOFIA is a 2.5 meter airborne infrared telescope, mounted in a Boeing 747SP aircraft. Due to the large size of the telescope, only a few degrees of azimuth are available at the telescope bearing. This means the heading of the aircraft is fundamentally associated with the telescope's observation targets, and the ground track necessary to enable a given mission is highly complex and dependent on the coordinates, duration, and order of observations to be performed. We have designed and implemented a Flight Management Infrastructure (FMI) product in order to plan and execute such missions in the presence of a large number of external constraints (e.g. restricted airspace, international boundaries, elevation limits of the telescope, aircraft performance, winds at altitude, and ambient temperatures). We present an overview of the FMI, including the process, constraints and basic algorithms used to plan and execute SOFIA missions.
