Abstract

Solid rocket motors (SRMs) have been popularly used in the current aerospace industry. Performance indicators, such as pressure and thrust, are of great importance for rocket monitoring and design. However, the measurement of such signals requires high economic and time costs. In many practical situations, the thrust measurement error is large and requires manual correction. In order to address this challenging problem, a lightweight RepVGG-based cross-modality data prediction method is proposed for SRMs. An end-to-end data prediction framework is established by transforming data across different modalities. A novel RepVGG deep neural network architecture is built, which is able to automatically learn features from raw data and predict new time-series data of different modalities. The effectiveness of the proposed method is extensively validated with the field SRM data. The accurate prediction of the thrust data can be achieved by exploring the pressure data. After calculation, the percentage error between the predicted data and the actual data is less than 5%. The proposed method offers a promising tool for cross-modality data prediction in real aerospace industries for SRMs.
