A modified method for satellite attitude control system in presence of novel actuators is proposed in this paper. The attitude control system is composed of three fluidic momentum controller (FMC) actuators that are used to control Euler angles and their dynamics is considered in satellite attitude equations as well. L1 adaptive control is utilized for satellite three-axial ...

This paper presents the use of the predictive fuzzy logic controller (PFLC) applied to attitude control system for agile micro-satellite. In order to reduce the effect of unpredictable time delays and large uncertainties, the algorithm employs predictive control to predict the attitude of the satellite. Comparison of the PFLC and conventional fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is presented to evaluat...

The Ørsted satellite mission imposes comparatively high requirements on autonomy of the attitude control system. Cost requirements, on the other hand, impose simple hardware and cheap actuators in form of magnetorquer coils. These conflicting requirements are fulfilled through development of novel attitude and control algorithms and wide on-board autonomy. The entire control and attitude determ...

a long time ago, since the launch of the first artificial satellite in 1957, controling attitude of satellites has been considered by the designers and engineers of aerospace industry. considering the importance of this issue various methods of control in response to this need have been presented and analyzed until now. in this paper, we propose and analyze a three-axis optimal control on the s...

Attitude Determination System (ADS) is a process to determine the attitude of a satellite by using on board sensors and attitude estimation algorithms to determine the orientation of the satellite which is relative to inertial reference frame such as Earth reference frame. The ADS is consists of an attitude sensor which provides the attitude and orbital position of the satellite to the Attitude...

When a robot arm(s) conducts some tasks on a satellite, the satellite attitude stability is necessary against the robot arm's motion to maintain the communication link and to generate electrical power from the solar panel(s). However the reaction from the robot arm is much stronger than the natural environmental disturbance torque that the traditional satellite attitude control system cares. Na...

Neural networks are non-linear functional approximators, and natural candidates to be used in nonlinear systems control. Satellite nominal attitude control dynamics is an example of non-linear system where conventional control has been applied sucessfully since the early space age. However, conventional control like the PD (proportional and derivative of the error) can only guarantee robustness...
