Real-Time Monitoring of the Position and Orientation of a Radio Telescope Sub-Reflector with Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
Environmental loads linked with pointing errors, such as gravity, thermal gradients, and wind disturbances, are a serious concern for large-aperture high-frequency radio telescopes. For the purpose of maintaining the pointing performance of a telescope, a contact measurement scheme is proposed on ba...
