IN recent years much effort has been devoted to the closed-loop design of spacecraft with
large angle slews. Vadali and Junkins1 and Wie and Barba2 derive a number of simple …

The focus of this paper is on the autopilot control loop design of fixed wing Micro Aerial
Vehicles (MAVs). The control methodologies used to design the lateral and longitudinal …

THIS work addresses the design of an efficient control logic for rapid rotational maneuvering
of a rigid satellite equipped with reaction wheels (RWs). The RWs are fixed to the satellite …

Providing affordable, high-quality healthcare to the elderly while enabling them to live
independently longer is of critical importance, as this is an increasing and expensive …

It is now well known that the time-varying sliding mode control (TVSMC) is characterized by
its global robustness against matched model uncertainties and disturbances. The accurate …

In this paper, the performance of the spacecraft attitude control system is enhanced using
model-based disturbance feedback control (DFC) strategy in the presence of disturbance …

The main objective of this paper is to enhance the robustness of an on–off attitude control
under uncertainties while limiting the probability of failure in attitude control. To do this, the …

In this study, a robust design optimization (RDO) algorithm is customized to reduce the effect
of sensor noise on the accuracy of a nonlinear spacecraft attitude control. The spacecraft …

In this research, nonlinear attitude controllers are designed for a low earth orbit satellite
intended to be used in observatory missions. The attitude is represented by the Modified …

The rotational Equations of motion of spacecraft are generally nonlinear, so use of nonlinear
control techniques are helpful in real conditions. Feedback linearization theory is a …
