Avionics

 

Space Vector has over 30 years of experience in missile guidance and control (G&C) systems.  Using Matlab, Simulink, and custom simulation software, we offer:

Control System Analysis and Design

  • Design - Given a target system to control we can develop a model and feedback control system to optimize performance based on design goals.
  • Implementation - Using the most modern tools we can implement the control electronics using hardware (CPLD, FPGM) or software (mP, DSP) implementations based on design goals.
  • Independent Review - Space Vector can provide an independent review of an existing or proposed control system design including a comprehensive report identifying strengths and weaknesses of the design along with suggestions for improvement.

Mission Analysis and Planning

  • Comprehensive data base of booster and vehicle performance parameters
  • 6 DOF trajectory simulation tools that include vehicle bending modes
  • Wind loading profiles and Monte Carlo dispersion predictions
  • Visualization aids like STK and Truespace
  • Trajectory shaping to optimize mission parameters (i.e., look times, line of sight, etc.)
  • Multibody and complex geometry engagement analysis techniques
  • Aerodynamic prediction codes (Missile Datcom, AP98)
