810-HB-SRP 3.3 Boost Guidance Systems (BGS) The Boost Guidance System is designed to reduce impact dispersion and to acquire accurate trajectories; the system is applicable to several sounding rockets. BGS unique capabilities make it possible to launch sounding rockets to higher altitudes and in higher winds while maintaining tolerable trajectory dispersion. Compared with a fin-stabilized, unguided rocket, a trajectory impact point dispersion reduction factor of 5-10 (depending on the detailed conditions) can be expected. NSROC uses the S-19 family of Boost Guidance Systems developed by SAAB Ericsson Space. The basic S-19 is an analog system using the Space Vector MIDAS mechanical attitude gyro which is no longer in production. The basic S-19 provides only launch rail attitude hold guidance for approximately 18 seconds. A digital system, the DS-19, has been developed and the first flight occurred in 1999. The DS-19 incorporates inertial impact point (IIP) guidance and is capable of guiding for a much longer time, providing control throughut the time that sufficient dynamic pressure for control is available. However, range safety considerations and lack of an automated flight termination system at White Sands Missile Range preclude it's use in the IIP mode. At White Sands, the DS-19 is restricted to the basic S-19 launch rail attitude hold guidance mode, and in this configuration it is designated the S-19D. The DS-19 or S-19D use the DMARS digital attitude reference system incorporating accelerometers and mechanical gyros. SAAB is currently incorporating the GLN-MAC-gimbal-mounted inertial measurement unit into the S-19 series BGS. This upgrade, which will be known as the S-19G, will be available in 2006. Although the GLN-MAC has accelerometers on board and the system has the necessary sensors to compute an IIP, the initial operational capability will only provide launch rail attitude hold capability equivalent to the S-19D. Table 3.3.1 describes the Boost Guidance Systems currently available. 3.3.1 Operation of the S-19/D/G Boost Guidance Systems The S-19 guidance system is a constant attitude control system. The vehicle pitch and yaw angles are detected by a gyro platform (MIDAS, DMARS, or GLN-MAC) that produces corresponding output signals. These signals are processed in an auto-pilot and, after roll resolving, are used as servo command signals. There is no active roll control. Each servo turns a pair of canards, thus achieving vehicle aerodynamic control. The four 32
