I liked this video! I like how you explain the basic logic of the control system

[@linecraftman3907]

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.

When I got my first job as a GNC Data Scientist at the university that invented the IMU, this was my introduction to my new role. It took me about 9 months to figure out that this is the analysis for just one frame of reference. There are 9 transformations to get from the stable member of a 3 ring gimbal to the flight vehicle's body alone. It's was laughably complex at first but after 7 years working on that program my brain has been completely reformatted. The inherent multi-dimensionality of the GNC feedback cycle has enabled me to parley that convolution ability into Artificial Intelligence, particularly in Natural Language Processing, where 60 billion individual tokenized words and n-grams can easily be coupled by 50 or 500 dimensions. Whenever I come across it, I can't help but think back to it as the point of inception where I went from a rubber-stamped Aerospace Engineer to a real rocket scientist. I like to use that as a gauge to see if a new team member is going to be able to keep pace with the initiatives I create. If that throws them for a loop, then they just aren't going to survive. Simple as that. I think it should be used in universities exactly the way it is but the copyright does make it pretty grey in terms of legality.

[@peterb43]

Very interesting. I was part of the initial 1970’s Space Shuttle program on a team designing the APU’s for powering TVC and other functions. Our APU’s have been modified for use on the SLS. Old timer 😎😎

[@TZeroSystems]

Very cool! I am very familiar with those actuators, I got to sit on on the class for teaching them and one of my TVC clips is now a part of the curriculum. I'm just excited to see it fly even if my time on the program ended over a year ago

[@peterb43]

APU’s are Auxillary Power Units. Turbine driven Hydraulic pumps generating the only power onboard the Shuttles, other than the engines. I did system analysis and optimization of the turbine design. 72000 rpm 5.5 in pitch dia . Geared down to hydraulic pump speed.

[@陈启荣-g8j]

Hi, I see your altitude sensor is BMPxxxx. Is this a baro meter? If it is true. Then the altitude reading should be interfered by the movement of the rocket since the change of air pressure is not only affected by the altitude but also by the moving speed of the rocket. How can you solve the problem? Do you calibrate it with GPS altitude? Do you use KALMEN filter to do the status estimation?

[@jadebox]

Hi, Robert. I thought I was doing a good job of understanding what you (and Joe) are doing, but this video raises a question that I hadn't considered before. Is your system guiding the rocket toward a point in space directly above the launch pad, keeping the rocket pointing straight upwards, or just keeping the rocket stable? In the absence of wind, there wouldn't be a difference, but we can't seem to get away from the weather. I think I know the answer based on the theoretical system you describe in the video, but I am not sure.

[@TZeroSystems]

Roger! So both are functional. You can have a target point or vector and regardless of weather you should be able to reach it. The tuning is the hard part in this cause you can tune for large disturbances or small ones. large means you can take extreme gusts but you're not good as good at filtering out noise. if you tune for small disturbances you aren't as good at fighting large ones but great at keeping an accurate and precise track. thats why i fly in minimum winds under 10mph usually.

@@TZeroSystems Can you recommend a good book as an introduction to satellite communications? One of the items on my bucket list is to work satellites.

[@CaptainVoid]

Hello, thanks for the informative video. I have a question about 3D orientation. I'm currently using the MPU6050 which includes accelerometer and gyroscope (but not magnetometer). Can I use this sensor to get accurate 3D orientation? The rocket will be dropped from a height of 40 meters with the help of a crane and the rocket must make a vertical soft landing.

[@TZeroSystems]

Yes but the MPU6050 has notoriously bad gyroscope drift. I suggest the Bosch BNO055 or BMI088.

[@creepersjeepers1138]

Fairly new to this subject. Just want to know whether the rockets can be scaled in a sense that whether the same algorithms and block diagrams be applied to an other rocket which has different size and weight just by scaling the parameters.

[@stephenremillard9462]

Just discovered you channel today and I'm glad I did. The quality of content and the production are great! Question: Is your schematic (the drawing shown in the video) of the software state-machine, available anywhere? Not the code just the drawing. I wish I had a plan like that when I first started my own GNC System 6 months ago. Maybe it could inspire me on the next generation of flight computer.

📺💬 A flight computer, GNC generative navigation guidance, and controls the flight parameters are contained into these circuits with censors that are input to its contained algorithm generated output signals to control navigating part to maintain the rocket in their course setup. 📺💬 How do you contain all information into small circuits, you do not need to compress all data into it because the rocket only needs to know commands reflection from the sensors, and those commands are trained into a set of variables as a sequence of series. 🥺💬 I am listening to his lesson and I think he is explaining training parameters and remote devices navigation, as you see it required only source signal generation to make a small of change with trained parameters and sensor signals to output as target functions. 📺💬 The guidance and states work with deviations that to desire of action to perform for the current state. 🥺💬 Yes, you are correct they called it deviation as you give an example AI, to create output from input signals it required some change of the number of sources ( source + parameters + sensors ) but my knowledge only for AI and radio devices.

I was just about to make a similar comment! Get to the topic in just a few seconds. This is as annoying as when people are promoting products and sponsors on their channel, taking the better part of 30 minutes to chatter about it. I bet the sponsors have stipulated how to. It’s as interesting as when Americans came with their company power points, spending 28 minutes on 49 slides talking about the company, and one minute about the part that covered the reason for the meeting. Results, not impressive! But it was company policy to create power points in this manner… No wonder the process have a huge problem convincing yours truly
