Human-actuator collaborative control by a novel frequency-division technique for linear maneuverability of control moment gyroscopic actuators
Sang-Deok Lee,Seul Jung +1 more
TL;DR: A human-actuator collaborative control framework for CMGs is proposed by introducing a novel frequency-division control technique, which controls the magnitude and the direction of the torque separately in the frequency domain.
