Designs for the GetAway Tether Experiment (GATE) can easily be adapted and applied to the Tether Dynamics Explorer (TDE) series. The GATE development schedule coincides with the planned first flight of the TDE. GATE technology has centered on the development of miniature deployers/actuators, sensors, control laws and simulation capability. The sensors currently under development are a tension sensor and a video based tether tracker. Both sensors are currently undergoing laboratory testing and development. The actuators currently being investigated are a small reel/deployed for active control of the tether and a small tether crawler to damp vibrations of the tether. Laboratory results are presented and the designs reviewed and discussed.
