The major mission of the ion drift meter (IDM) on ROCSAT-1 is to compute the plasma flow velocity by measuring arrival angles of ions with respect to the sensor look direction. The deviation of the satellite attitude due to any external forces could cause errors in the arrival angles of ions measured from IDM, and the faulted data would bring about the inaccuracy in the plasma flow velocity. In this study, we will determine the disturbed angles of the satellite axes by conferring the spacecraft attitude drift caused by the nodal regression and perturbations due to the equatorial bulge, atmospheric drag and solar radiation pressure. By transferring the satellite coordinate, we can obtain three axes error from the nodal regression, and the inference is tally with the resolution of the Euler’s Moment Equation by considering the external force for the Earth oblateness. With adequate understanding of these disturbances, it is effortless to correct the inaccuracies from the IDM, and the more accurate information must be valuable for the researches of the ionosphere and the plasma physics. |
