Abstract
This article presents a novel method to measure unbalanced moments in a two-axis gimbaled seeker commonly believed to seviously influence the tracking accuracy and stabilizing capability. This method enables individual measurement of unbalanced moments, and judgment of the seeker's status—balanced or not. Furthermore, an instrument is designed based on this method and calibrated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through a simulation. The experimental results show a satisfied level of accuracy the measurements have. This work forms a basis for the further development of a more stabilized gimbaled seeker with less induced vibration and consumed power.
