Abstract

The high precision and high speed miniaturized phototheodolite system composed of two phototheodolites and other apparatus can measure the azimuth angle and the pitching angle of the aircrafts when they are taking off in aerodromes and ranges. And the measure system can also take down the continuous flight attitude of the aircrafts. The rotary table of the phototheodolite is one of the most important components of the measure system. It sustains the theodolite and affects the system's precision. This paper elaborates on the issues, such as the comparison of different designs, the reasons of confirming the best design, the analysis of the precision of the rotary table. The design for the miniaturized rotary table lays a firm foundation for the design of the smaller and more economical high precision and high speed phototheodolite measure system.
