To determine

The three major categories of photodetectors.

Explanation of Solution

Photodetectors:

Photodetectors are sensors widely used in today’s industries to sense the presence of objects without having the need to make physical contact with the object being sensed. The photodetectors operate at speeds that are much higher and cannot be tolerated by the mechanical contact switches.

Photodetectors can be categorized into three major types as follows:

  • Photovoltaic.
  • Photoemissive.
  • Photoconductive.

(b): Let us first consider controlling the orbit of deputy spacecraft to rendezvous with chief spacecraft. Define x = [r] and x = x = R to represent the deputy orbital state and its target (= chief orbit) in Cartesian coordinates, respectively. The control input is thruster acceleration, u € R³, in the ECI frame. Denote the relative state by dx = x-x. Table 2 summarize the initial orbital elements.

One image show problem c.1 and c.2 that I need help with. The second image shows the lyapunov function and its derivative but it is NOT the same function that is given in problem. I have attached that image as an example.
This is a tilt and rotation question. Here are notes attached for reference.
