synonym Xi'an Satellite Measurement and Control Center (Xi'an Satellite TT&C Center) generally refers to China Xi'an Satellite TT&C Center
China Xi'an Satellite TT&C Center was built in 1967. It is located in the temperate zone, with convenient transportation, and is located in the hinterland of China. It has the capability of multi orbit, multi spacecraft, remote tracking and precise measurement and control. The TT&C center relies on the TT&C network that tracks and measures the flight state of spacecraft and controls its movement and working state to track, measure, monitor and control spacecraft, so as to measure and control the movement of spacecraft.

The main tasks of the Center are: ① Preparation spacecraft Flight test TT&C communication system Implementation plan And spacecraft ground-based TT&C network plan, and organize and implement the mobilization and management of ground-based TT&C network. ② Undertake spacecraft measurement, monitoring, calculation, prediction, control, recovery and data post-processing. ③ Track and measure the flight path of spacecraft to obtain subsystem Of working condition and Environmental status , calculate and analyze the acquired data, and judge the correctness of spacecraft flight trajectory and spacecraft alignment space environment Adaptability to change Spacecraft orbit Flight procedures And control working status and improvement spacecraft design Provide basis. ④ Complete real-time or program control To make the spacecraft reach the predetermined orbit and get the desired attitude. yes , we have Application satellite (e.g Earth observation satellite meteorological satellite )According to the theory of storage Track parameters AutoComplete For program control, after the satellite enters the orbit, the actual flight orbit must be measured and calculated by the TT&C network, the orbit parameters shall be injected into the satellite, and the program control time on the satellite shall be corrected in turn. Spacecraft orbit change, rendezvous and return are all controlled by the space TT&C network. ⑤ Receive some detection data and reflection of spacecraft astronaut Physiologically Telemetry information And TV images and other special information and voice, Space Control Center Record, display and process these information for real-time and Ex post analysis Use. ⑥ Undertake the measurement and control management of spacecraft in orbit. ⑦ participate in Carrier rocket , missile tracking measurement experimental data Of real-time analysis Exchange with. ⑧ For application satellites requiring high-precision positioning (such as navigation satellite Geodesic satellite High resolution Reconnaissance satellite )The TT&C network provides users with accurate satellite position (or orbit) data and corresponding time data as the benchmark information for application data processing. The space control center and a number of Space TT&C Station form. Measurement and control station The number, configuration and distribution of depends on the flight trajectory of spacecraft and Measurement and control requirements Space control center passes TT&C communication network It forms a complex with each TT&C station, namely the space TT&C network. Space TT&C network is generally a global network or intercontinental network.

The space TT&C network of Xi'an Satellite TT&C Center can be divided into three categories according to the TT&C objects: ① Satellite TT&C network To launch various application satellites and Scientific experiment Satellite service. ② Manned Space TT&C Network For launch Manned spacecraft Services. In addition to tracking measurement, telemetry reception and Remote control equipment In addition, it is also equipped with equipment for communicating with astronauts and transmitting TV. ③ deep space Web. To detect Moon And deep space planet spacecraft services. To achieve ultra remote Operating distance Deep space network Of Ground equipment With large aperture antenna and high sensitivity receiving system, the equipment used adopts distance and distance change rate Comprehensive measurement System. Globally uniform distribution 3 stations, at least one station can track deep space targets at any time.

On October 13, 2021, in the command hall of Xi'an Satellite TT&C Center, scientific and technical personnel underway Shenzhou XIII Last time before mission launch Comprehensive drill [2]
At 23:08 on November 29, 2022, China successfully launched the Shenzhou 15 manned spacecraft at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. Xi'an Satellite Measurement and Control Center successfully completed the launch and measurement and control mission of Shenzhou 15 manned spacecraft. [3]
In May 2023, China successfully launched the 56th satellite of Beidou Satellite Navigation System at Xichang Satellite Launch Center. After the satellite was successfully put into orbit, it has been taken over by Xi'an Satellite Measurement and Control Center, and the early orbital segment measurement and control work is being carried out. On the 25th, this new Beidou satellite will officially enter the "big family" of Beidou constellation. [4]
On June 4, 2023, the return capsule of Shenzhou 15 manned spacecraft successfully landed at Dongfeng landing site, and Xi'an Satellite TT&C Center and various TT&C stations successfully implemented the TT&C mission of the return phase of the spacecraft. [5]
At 10:32 on June 10, 2024 (Beijing time), China's first all electric push communication satellite, the Asia Pacific 6E, was successfully positioned at the 135.5 ° east longitude orbital position (test orbital position) under the tracking control of Xi'an Satellite Measurement and Control Center. [6]
