Abstract:
A vehicle, a satellite control system, and a method for controlling the same are provided. The satellite control system, for example, may include, but is not limited to, a control moment gyroscope having a gimbal, at least one gimbal angle sensor configured to determine an angle of the gimbal, each gimbal angle sensor having an output circuit configured to output the determined angle, a signal conditioner circuit having substantially identical circuit topology as the output circuit, and a common mode error compensation circuit electrically coupled to the signal conditioner, the common mode error compensation circuit configured to determine common mode error in the gimbal angle sensor based upon a voltage output from the signal conditioner circuit and to output a signal to compensate for the common mode error.
