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.
