| contents | Precision space inertial sensors are imperative for Earth geodesy missions, gravitational wave observations, and fundamental physics experiments in space. In these missions, free-falling test masses(TMs) are susceptible to parasitic electrostatic forces and torques, with significant contributions from the interaction between stray electric fields and TM charge. These effects can make up a sizable fraction of the noise budget. Thus, a charge management system(CMS) is essential in high-precise space-based missions. However, the operating environment for space charge control is full of uncertainties and disturbances. TM charge tracking precision is negatively affected by many physical parameters such as external charging rate, quantum yield, UV light power, etc. Those parameters are rarely measured and supposed to vary because of changes in solar activity, temperature, aging of electronic components and so on. The unpredictability and variability of these parameters affects the CMS performance in long-term space missions and must be evaluated or eliminated. This paper presents a simple physics-based model of the discharging process with high charging/discharging rate based on the geometry of inertial sensors. After that, a disturbance observer sliding mode control (DOSMC) is proposed for the CMS with parametric uncertainties and unknown disturbance to maintain the TM charge below a certain level and improve its robustness. The simulation results show that the DOSMC is able to force the system trajectory coincides with the sliding line, which depends neither on the parameters or disturbances. In this way, the DOSMC can effectively ignore the parameter perturbation and external disturbances. The control precision can reach 0.1 mV, which is superior to that of a classic proportional-integral-derivative controller and conventional sliding mode control. |
