Making Faults Cases
Creating a fault base class and defining individual fault types enables modeling multiple kinds of faults within a single satellite. In this example, a power draw limit is applied to RWs, causing it to operate at reduced speed compared to nominal conditions. By default, while a torque limit is enforced, there are no restrictions on power draw. time is used to define the time at which the fault occurs, reducedLimit specifies the power draw limit in watts, and wheel_Idx indicates which
RW is affected by the fault. It can be set to a value from 1 to 4, or to all to apply the fault to every RW.

Flight software model: A custom flight software model is defined to support four RWs. It is based on the
SteeringImagerFSWModel, with the main modification being the addition of therwNullSpacemodule. Due to the redundancy of having four RWs, there are infinitely many solutions for mapping the required body control torque to individual RW torques. To address this, once the control torque is computed, the RW null space is used to decelerate the wheels without applying additional torque to the spacecraft.

Configure the Satellite
-
SatProperties: Body angular velocity, instrument pointing direction, body position, body velocity, battery charge (properties in flight software model or dynamics model). Also, customized dynamics property in CustomDynModel above: Angle between the sun and the solar panel and four RW speed fraction.
OpportunityProperties: Target’s priority, normalized location, and target angle (upcoming 32 targets).
Time: Simulation time.
Eclipse: Next eclipse start and end times.
-
Desat: Manage momentum for the RWs for 60 seconds.
Charge: Enter a sun-pointing charging mode for 60 seconds.
Image: Image target from upcoming 32 targets
The fault is introduced by overriding the reset_post_sim_init function. The probability of the fault occurring can be specified using the fault_chance argument, and the time of occurrence can be set using the fault_time argument.

Making and interacting the Environment
For this example, the single-agent SatelliteTasking environment is used. n addition to the configured satellite, the environment requires a scenario, which defines the context in which the satellite operates. In this case, the scenario uses UniformTargets, placing 1000 uniformly distributed targets across the Earth’s surface. The environment also takes a rewarder, which defines how
data collected from the scenario is rewarded. Here, UniqueImageReward is used, which assigns rewards based on the sum of the priorities of uniquely imaged targets in each episode.
[7]:
env = SatelliteTasking(
satellite=satellites,
terminate_on_time_limit=True,
scenario=scene.UniformTargets(n_targets=1000),
rewarder=data.UniqueImageReward(),
sim_rate=0.5,
max_step_duration=300.0,
time_limit=95 * 60 * 3,
log_level="INFO",
failure_penalty=0,
# disable_env_checker=True, # For debugging
)
First, the environment is reset. A seed is provided to ensure reproducibility of the results; it can be removed to enable randomized testing.
