Abstract

The problem of approximating measurements of the current intensity generated by the solar batteries of the Zarya Functional Cargo Block of the International Space Station is considered using a mathematical model that contains a set of refinable parameters whose values are found by means of least squares. An algorithm is proposed for finding values of the refinable parameters by processing the telemetry data of the power supply system of the Zarya block. A method for forecasting the total power generation by solar batteries is also proposed. Results are presented from applying the proposed methods and algorithms to analyzing the April 14–20, 2020, flight of the Zarya block and estimating the error of the proposed forecasting techniques. The results of the study can be used in the development and operation of spacecraft.
