FreeFlyer Design Engineer Mission

FreeFlyer® Mission

FreeFlyer® Mission is the ultimate turnkey Flight Dynamics COTS product on the market today.  It provides full flight dynamics functionality that seamlessly integrates with any ground system or other third party mission operations software.  Its heritage as a flight-proven solution makes it the best value available today for providing complete flight dynamics support for any space mission.

Orbit Determination:  The key features contained in the OD functionality are:
bullet Computational Engines:  Extended Kalman Filter (with optional Smoother used concurrently), Batch Least Squares.
bullet Output:  Full State and Covariance Matrices at each integration step, user-defined formatted ASCII reports.
bullet User selectable solve-for parameters:  Orbit States, Drag, Solar Radiation Pressure, Ground Station geodetic biases, measurement biases.
bullet Data Types:  Ground-Based Measurements (Range, Range rate, Angles), TDRS Based Measurements ( One-way Doppler, Two-way Range, Two-way Doppler), GPS Measurements (Position Only, Velocity Only, Position and Velocity)
bullet Input interface for data exchange:  ASCII/Binary Data files, ODBC Compliant Database, TCP/IP socket.
bullet Data Formats supported:  ASCII, UTDF (TDRS UTDF), DSN, GPS, CERES, User-defined formats supported with database or socket input.
bullet Measurement Modelling:   Tropospheric Correction, Ionospheric Correction, Light-Time Correction.
 
 

Automation:  FreeFlyer allows automation of many routine flight dynamics tasks required in the operations environment such as manoeuvre planning, orbit product generation, and orbit determination.  A fuzzy logic engine also allows for automated resolution of complex problems with conflicting constraints.  With the power of FreeFlyer ’s logic control engine and full scripting language, the cost of routine flight dynamics operations can be significantly reduced through automation

 

  
 

 

Ground system integration:   FreeFlyer was designed to be able to seamlessly integrate with any third party ground system or other mission operations software to provide the flight dynamics function as a turnkey service.  For more information on current operational systems using FreeFlyer please contact a.i. solutions.

 

  
Advanced analysis:  FreeFlyer provides solutions to even the most complex flight dynamics problems such as:
bullet Tracking Data Simulation
bullet Ascent planning and optimization
bullet Frozen orbit control
bullet Automated orbit control
bullet Autonomous Orbit Determination
