用改进的卡尔曼滤波实现月球轨道自主态势感知,兼顾传感器优化与状态估计。

Unified Orbit-Attitude Estimation and Sensor Tasking Framework for Autonomous Cislunar Space Domain Awareness Using Multiplicative Unscented Kalman Filter

  • 采用乘法无迹卡尔曼滤波,提升非开普勒环境下轨道与姿态估计精度。
  • 传感器任务规划基于互信息,减少资源消耗同时保持状态估计稳定。
  • 揭示了目标数量与观测频次对姿态估计敏感性的关键权衡,适合深空探测设计者。

地月空间环境因强非线性、非开普勒动力学,导致不确定性传播与状态估计精度下降。面对远距离观测、传感器-目标几何限制、光照条件、大范围监测需求及地面/空间传感器部署方案复杂等挑战,本文提出一种融合两阶段优化的自主地月空间域感知框架:(1)基于真实成本函数的观测器架构优化,采用树状帕尔森估计器算法求解;(2)在所得观测架构基础上,于离散任务周期内进行互信息驱动的传感器任务规划,并在任务间隔间以误差状态乘法无迹卡尔曼滤波同步执行轨道与姿态状态估计。数值仿真表明,任务1所得架构在更少传感器下显著优于随机搜索基准;任务2显示,平动状态估计在目标-观测器数量比变化范围内表现良好,但姿态估计对目标数和任务频率极为敏感,高目标数或低频更新时出现明显旋转状态发散。结果凸显了传感资源、任务频率与估计性能间的权衡关系,影响地月自主态势感知的可扩展性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The cislunar regime departs from near-Earth orbital behavior through strongly non-linear, non-Keplerian dynamics, which adversely affect the accuracy of uncertainty propagation and state estimation. Additional challenges arise from long-range observation requirements, restrictive sensor-target geometry and illumination conditions, the need to monitor an expansive cislunar volume, and the large design space associated with space/ground-based sensor placement. In response to these challenges, this work introduces an advanced framework for cislunar space domain awareness (SDA) encompassing two key tasks: (1) observer architecture optimization based on a realistic cost formulation that captures key performance trade-offs, solved using the Tree of Parzen Estimators algorithm, and (2) leveraging the resulting observer architecture, a mutual information-driven sensor tasking optimization is performed at discrete tasking intervals, while orbital and attitude state estimation is carried out at a finer temporal resolution between successive tasking updates using an error-state multiplicative unscented Kalman filter. Numerical simulations demonstrate that our approach in Task 1 yields observer architectures that achieve significantly lower values of the proposed cost function than baseline random-search solutions, while using fewer sensors. Task 2 results show that translational state estimation remains satisfactory over a wide range of target-to-observer count ratios, whereas attitude estimation is significantly more sensitive to target-to-observer ratios and tasking intervals, with increased rotational-state divergence observed for high target counts and infrequent tasking updates. These results highlight important trade-offs between sensing resources, tasking cadence, and achievable state estimation performance that influence the scalability of autonomous cislunar SDA.
