Table1_Kalman Filter Based High Precision Temperature Data Processing Method.XLSX

Obtaining high precision temperature data is crucial in spaceflight applications, considering the growing demand for high precision temperature measurement and the limited onboard resources with a harsh thermal environment in the spacecraft. How to obtain the data, however, becomes an urgent problem. Kalman filtering method is one of the solutions to obtain high precision temperature data with such limited resources. In this paper, the authors demonstrate the principle of temperature measurement system, the application of Kalman filter in temperature measurement including the processing method of sensor self-heating effect, and establishes the state space of measurement error and system error. Through the test, it could be seen that Kalman filtering can improve the temperature measurement resolution to the order of 100 μK while effectively reducing the temperature measurement bias.
