Surface accuracy measurement sensor for deployable reflector antennas

Abstract

The breadboard surface accuracy measurement sensor is an optical angle sensor which provides continuous line of sight position measurements of infrared source targets placed strategically about the antenna surface. Measurements of target coordinates define the surface figure relative to a reference frame on the antenna. Sensor operation, tests and test results to date are described.
