A SINGLE-GIMBAL control moment gyro (CMG) system is regarded as an effective torque
generator for attitude control both for large space stations and small agile satellites because …

Hybrid actuator consisting of Control Moment Gyro (CMG) and Reaction Wheel (RW)
possesses both the advantages of providing control using CMGs and offering high-precision …

Abstract Hybrid Rigid-Continuum Space Robots are “couple strength and gentleness” and
therefore more adaptable to the environment and mission. However, compared to traditional …

Attitude tracking control for a space moving target (such as debris or malfunctioning satellite)
is investigated in this paper, which is different from the traditional agile attitude maneuvering …

In this paper, a novel structure of four degrees of freedom (4-DOF) hybrid magnetic bearing
is proposed for double gimbal magnetically suspended control momentum gyro …

Feedback linearization-based controllers are widely exploited in stabilizing a tilt rotor (eight
or twelve inputs); each degree of freedom (six degrees of freedom in total) is manipulated …

This paper addresses the problem of singularity avoidance for a 4-Control Moment
Gyroscope (CMG) pyramid cluster, as used for the attitude control of a satellite using …

The control moment gyroscope (CMG) is used as the actuator of attitude control for modern
satellites. Because of static and dynamic rotor imbalances and installation errors, it becomes …

Vibration isolation is a direct and effective approach to improve the ultra-precise pointing
capability of a high resolution remote sensing satellite. In this paper, a passive multi-strut …

This paper proposes a finite-time stable chattering-free output feedback control method for
rigid satellites equipped with single gimbal control moment gyro (SGCMG) actuators …
