Abstract Tripulse
is a novel orientation/attitude estimation system
that is designed to accurately estimate the
orientation of a satellite borne phased array
relative to one or more Earth stations. This
system has an accuracy potential that is
significantly better than conventional
Earth-Moon-Sun attitude sensors. Tripulse has
conceptual similarities to amplitude comparison
monopulse systems used in tracking radars.
Detailed Tripulse statistical performance analyses
for noise, beam-forming quantization errors, and
hardware failures are presented
