Adaptive Neural Network-Based Satellite Attitude Control by Using the Dynamic Inversion Technique and a VSCMG Pyramidal Cluster by Mihai Lungu, Romulus Lungu

“…The paper presents an adaptive system for the control of small satellites’ attitude by using a pyramidal cluster of four variable-speed control moment gyros as actuators. Starting from the dynamic model of the pyramidal cluster, an adaptive control law is designed by means of the dynamic inversion method and a feed-forward neural network-based nonlinear subsystem; the control law has a proportional-integrator component (for the control of the reduced-order linear subsystem) and an adaptive component (for the compensation of the approximation error associated with the function describing the dynamics of the nonlinear system). …”

Compound Attitude Maneuver and Collision Avoiding Control for a Novel Noncontact Close-Proximity Formation Satellite Architecture by He Liao, Jinjin Xie, Xiaodong Zhou, Chuang Yao, Zhongxing Tang, Yanbin Zhao, Jirong Qi

“…Secondly, the collision avoiding control with disturbance observer-based feedforward compensation is proposed to guarantee the synchronization of the two separated modules within the small air clearance constraint of the noncontact Lorentz actuator. Finally, a physical air-floating platform is established to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.…”
