Abstract :
Satellite simulator is the simulation of a satellite. It constructs a realistic mission environment to test mission control system before the satellite is launched. And it can be used to train mission operators in the control center to improve their abilities of flight control. Fidelity of a simulator is very important. It can be greatly improved by directly embedding onboard software of the control subsystem into the simulator. At the same time, high-accuracy orbit dynamic simulating the complex space environment between the moon and the earth is also applied in a simulator to improve the fidelity of a simulator.
