Abstract
In this paper, a telescope control method to reject ground-based disturb is proposed to enhance the tracking precision of telescope systems. Telescope systems usually suffer some uncertainouter disturbances, some disturbance come from the torque disturb such as friction orwind loads, some of the others may come from the platform. For astronomical telescope, especially relative large volume telescope, disturb from ground istransferred to the telescope via the pier foundation. And the main mount of disturb is the resonance frequency of pier foundation. The frequency is about 10Hz.A complete vibration test was carried out on a quantum satellite-ground communicationground telescope. Some conclusion is achieved. And a control method based on data fusion to rejecting ground-based disturbance is proposed. The test showed that the method could reduce the track error from 1.5 angular second to 0.28 angular second.
