Diagnostic system of launch vehicle
The present disclosure relates to a diagnostic system of a launch vehicle, and more particularly, to a technology capable of accurately estimating a change in attitude and volume of the launch vehicle by generating a three-dimensional shape of the launch vehicle and comparing the three-dimensional shape with reference shape information using a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensor to calculate state information of the launch vehicle.
1 . A diagnostic system of a launch vehicle, comprising:
a sensor unit that includes at least one sensor installed toward an appearance of the launch vehicle;
moving means that moves the sensor unit in a longitudinal direction of the launch vehicle; and
a signal processing unit that controls the moving means, receives sensing information from the sensor unit, and provides state information of the launch vehicle,
wherein the at least one sensor includes a Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensor, and
the signal processing unit generates a three-dimensional shape of the launch vehicle based on location information of the sensor unit moved by the moving means, and sensing information received from the sensor unit,
wherein the signal processing unit compares the three-dimensional shape of the launch vehicle with reference shape information of the launch vehicle to calculate state information of the launch vehicle by setting a reference axis based on the launch vehicle,
generating a plurality of virtual points corresponding to the reference shape information of the launch vehicle,
calculating first coordinate values corresponding to the plurality of virtual points based on the reference axis, calculating second coordinate values corresponding to a plurality of detection points generated based on the location information of the sensor unit and the sensing information, and calculating a difference between the first coordinate values and the second coordinate values to calculate the state information of the launch vehicle.
