Abstract
Abstract The orbit of BeiDou satellite system is a very ideal space environment monitoring area. The radiation dosimeters are present on this series of navigation satellites, and they are respectively installed in the x, y and z positions. A charge detector installed in the satellite cabin is used for monitoring satellite deep charging potential. Radiation dosimeters select the 100 nm P-channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) sensors, whose monitoring range can reach 2 × 106 rad (Si). In the circuit design part, the “zero temperature coefficient” current of the PMOS is used as the constant current source for measuring, which effectively reduces the influence of temperature effect. Three radiation dosimeters realize the daily dose change monitoring during the satellite’s operation, and the detection accuracy is high. The deep charging potential sensor adopts the equivalent capacitor design which is composed of the outer optical quartz glass and the inner circular gold-plate. The two kinds of detection instruments have the characteristics of small volume, low power consumption and high detection accuracy. The detection results show that they have important application value for space environment prediction and guarantee.
