Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to meet advanced requirements in near future microsatellite missions, research and development of microsatellite system technology were conducted for enhancement of its functionality. In particular, flight model of 50kg micarosatellite TSUBAME was finished, launched and operated to gain valuable lessoned learned. Next, concept of variable-shape space system was focused which has configuration change function in order to make itself adaptive for task requirement in mission operations. In the study, variable-shape attitude control was proposed and its fundamental research was conducted: extraction of element technology, analysis, development and experiment. In particular, concept design of 50kg micarosatellite Hibari was reviewed using variable-shape attitude control to conduct a new scientific observation.
