Satellite Attitude Control by Quaternion-Based Backstepping

TLDR
A tracking controller is presented to stabilize the attitude of a micro satellite via integrator backstepping and quaternion feedback and is shown to render the equilibrium points in the closed-loop system uniformly asymptotically stable.
Abstract
In this brief, a tracking controller is presented to stabilize the attitude of a micro satellite via integrator backstepping and quaternion feedback. The controller is shown to render the equilibrium points in the closed-loop system uniformly asymptotically stable. Simulations are performed using satellite parameters from the ESEO mission under the European Space Agency's SSETI project.

Adaptive Sliding Mode Fault Tolerant Attitude Tracking Control for Flexible Spacecraft Under Actuator Saturation

TL;DR: A novel fault tolerant attitude tracking control scheme is developed for flexible spacecraft with partial loss of actuator effectiveness fault and it is shown that the roll, pitch and yaw angle trajectories can globally asymptotically track the desired attitude in the face of faulty actuator, system uncertainties, external disturbances and even actuator saturation.

Quaternion-Based Hybrid Control for Robust Global Attitude Tracking

TL;DR: This work proposes a quaternion-based hybrid feedback scheme that solves the global attitude tracking problem in three scenarios: full state measurements, only measurements of attitude, and measurements of attitudes with angular velocity measurements corrupted by a constant bias.

Exponential stability of an attitude tracking control system on SO(3) for large-angle rotational maneuvers☆

TL;DR: By selecting an attitude error function carefully, it is shown that the proposed control system guarantees a desirable tracking performance uniformly for rotational maneuvers involving a large initial attitude error.

Spacecraft attitude determination and control

TL;DR: In this paper, the first comprehensive presentation of data, theory, and practice in attitude analysis is presented, including orthographic globe projections to eliminate confusion in vector drawings and a presentation of new geometrical procedures for mission analysis and attitude accuracy studies which can eliminate many complex simulations.

The attitude control problem

TL;DR: In this article, a general framework for the analysis of the attitude tracking control problem for a rigid body is presented and a large family of globally stable control laws are obtained by using the globally nonsingular unit quaternion representation in a Lyapunov function candidate whose form is motivated by the consideration of the total energy of the rigid body.

A topological obstruction to continuous global stabilization of rotational motion and the unwinding phenomenon

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a continuous dynamical system on a state space that has the structure of a vector bundle on a compact manifold possesses no globally asymptotically stable equilibrium.
