F/SOP/FYDP 30/08/2024
4. Scope
Development of advanced algorithms tailored to the specific dynamics of ionic
thrusters.
Development of pulse-width modulation (PWM) techniques to control the output
voltage and current of the power converter.
Design and execution of comprehensive testing procedures to evaluate the system's
performance under various operating conditions.
Simulation of the system using MATLAB/Simulink or other modeling tools to verify its
functionality and stability.
5. Proposed Methodology
Using ‘Simulation Models’ and hardware-in-the-loop testing to evaluate the control
system's behavior.
Creating ‘Mathematical Models’ of the ionic thruster and its components.
Designing ‘Control algorithms’ considering stability, robustness, and performance
objectives.
Deploying the control system based operation on the ionic thruster and possibly
conducting tests to validate its performance in real-world conditions.
Analyzing the collected data to identify areas for improvement and optimize the
system's performance.
6. Resources Involved
Power Supply: A high-voltage, high-current power supply is needed to energize the
thruster.
Microcontroller or Embedded System: A powerful microcontroller or embedded
system capable of high definition processing and control.
Power Electronics: Components such as transistors, diodes, capacitors, and
inductors will be needed to construct the power converter.
3D Printer: For printing of parts required for development of prototype.
Programming Language: Programming languages such as C, C++, or Python could be
used for developing control algorithms.
Simulation Software: Softwares like MATLAB/Simulink, Solid Works or Python
libraries
Estimated Cost Of Project:
PKR 40,000/-
