Line of sight stabilization of an optical instrument using gained magnetostrictive actuators

Line of sight stabilization of an optical instrument using gained magnetostrictive actuators

Line-of-sight stabilization of an optical instrument using magnetostnctlve actuators is described in this study. Various stabilization methods, i.e. gyroscopic, hydraulic, piezoelectric, electrodynamic and magnetostrictive methods, are compared and magnetostrictive stabilization is selected for its...
