Globally stabilizing saturated attitude control in the presence of bounded unknown disturbances

TLDR
In this article, a smooth attitude-stabilizing control law is derived from which known limits on the control authority of the system are rigorously enforced, and unknown disturbance torques, assumed to be of lesser magnitude than the control limits, are included in the formulation.
Abstract
A smooth attitude-stabilizing control law is derived from which known limits on the control authority of the system are rigorously enforced. Unknown disturbance torques, assumed to be of lesser magnitude than the control limits, are included in the formulation. A smooth control signal containing hyperbolic tangent functions that rigorously obeys a known maximum-torque constraint is introduced. The controller can be viewed as a smooth analog of the variable-structure approach, with the degree of sharpness of the control permitted to vary with time according to a set of user-defined parameters. Lyapunov analysis is employed to ensure global stability, and asymptotic convergence of the angular velocity is guaranteed via the Barbalat lemma. Attitude errors, expressed as Euler parameters, are shown via simulation to vanish whenever certain design parameters are selected appropriately, and guidelines for selection of those parameters are provided in depth.

Fixed-Time Attitude Control for Rigid Spacecraft With Actuator Saturation and Faults

TL;DR: This brief investigates the finite-time control problem associated with attitude stabilization of a rigid spacecraft subject to external disturbance, actuator faults, and input saturation and develops a novel fixed-time sliding mode surface, and the settling time of the defined surface is shown to be independent of the initial conditions of the system.

Adaptive Sliding Mode Control for Attitude Stabilization With Actuator Saturation

TL;DR: No prior knowledge of inertia moment is required for both of the proposed adaptive control laws, which implies that the designed control schemes can be applied in spacecraft systems with a large parametric uncertainty existing in inertial matrix or even in unknown inertial Matrix.

Adaptive Fault-Tolerant Attitude Tracking Control of Spacecraft With Prescribed Performance

TL;DR: In this paper, an adaptive fault-tolerant controller is derived by incorporating backstepping control, the barrier Lyapunov function, and Nussbaum gains, which is able to guarantee the satisfaction of the prespecified constraints on the transformed errors, as well as the boundedness of all other closed-loop signals, without resorting to a judicious selection of the control parameters.
