Abstract
Pointing mechanism installed on GOSAT/TANSO-FTS is one of the most essential techniques to realize optimal observation patterns on the earth and a long-term operation period. In orbit, the continuous increase of angular rate sensor cable torque was occurred, and this induced the limited pointing angle operation for the along track direction. In this paper, we report reproducing experimental results for the degradation of the pointing mechanism in orbit.
