Kurzfassung
As commercially available CubeSats with up to six standardized units cannot achieve the precision required for an instantaneous establishment of a low-divergence optical inter-satellite link, search patterns are used to scan the remaining field of uncertainty. This analysis optimizes the simultaneously executed search pattern combinations of the two laser communication terminals involved. Based on a Monte Carlo simulation, the perturbations on these links are investigated, and the corresponding key performance parameters such as mean acquisition time and success rate are calculated. The results are penalized by the hardware specifications, including actuator and sensor bandwidths, given by their design. Residual attitude error components imply a significant influence on the acquisition process and are therefore presented within this work. The pattern pairs are fed through an automated optimization algorithm to tune and analyze them. In this particular scenario of two CubeISL models, the mean duration for a first detected acquisition hit is within a pattern period of 3.2 s for the best performing pairs spiral-rose and lissajous-rose. Assuming an uncertainty field of ±0.2deg due to limited attitude knowledge, success rates between 82.3% and 99.9% are achieved.
