International Space Station

Description: Components of the International Space Station

These benchmarks model components of the International Space Station (ISS). More details can be found in , and , .

Component 1R

This model describes the Russian Service Module (ISS-1R).

Component 12A

This model describes the Solar Arrays P3/P4 (ISS-12A).

Origin

This benchmark is part of the SLICOT Benchmark Examples for Model Reduction.

Data

The system matrices $A$, $B$, $C$ for the ISS-1R model are available from the SLICOT benchmarks page: iss.zip, the system matrices for the ISS-12A model are available here: iss12a.zip. Both are stored as MATLAB .mat files.

Dimensions

System structure:

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dot{x}(t)& =& Ax(t)+Bu(t)\\ y(t)& =& Cx(t)\end{array}$

System dimensions:

$A\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}^{N\times N}$, $B\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}^{N\times 3}$, $C\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}^{3\times 270}$.

with $N=270$ for ISS-1R and $N=1412$ for ISS-12A.
