Attitude Tracking Control

In this paper, finite-time fault-tolerant attitude tracking control is investigated for rigid spacecraft system with external disturbances, inertia uncertainties and actuator faults. A novel finite-time disturbance observer combined with a nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller is developed. Using an equivalent output error injection approach, a finite-time disturbance observer with simple structure is firstly designed to estimate lumped uncertainty. Then, to remove the requirement of prior knowledge about lumped uncertainty and reduce chattering, an adaptive finite-time disturbance observer is further proposed, and the estimations converge to the neighborhood of the true values. Based on the designed observer, a unified finite-time attitude controller is obtained automatically. Finally, both additive and multiplicative faults are considered for simulations and the results illustrate the great fault-tolerant capability of the proposed scheme.

Attitude Tracking Control

For multi-spacecraft with actuator saturation, inertia uncertainties and external disturbances, a distributed finite-time coordinated attitude tracking control problem for the spacecraft with the communication topology containing fewer information paths is investigated. Aiming at reducing the communication path, a class of distributed finite-time state observers is designed. To speed up the convergence rate of the multiple spacecraft system, a fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode function is proposed. Moreover, an adaptive control term is proposed to suppress the impact of the external state-dependent disturbances and unknown time-varying inertia uncertainties. Further considering the actuator saturation owing to its physical limitations, a saturation function is designed. With the distributed finite-time observers, the fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode function, the adaptive update law and the saturation function, a distributed finite-time coordinated attitude tracking saturation controller is designed. Using the proposed controller, the follower can synchronize with the common leader with time-varying trajectory in finite time. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the designed controller.

Attitude Tracking Control

This paper investigates the finite-time attitude tracking control problem for spacecraft in the presence of external disturbances and actuator faults. Two anti-unwinding attitude tracking control schemes have been proposed based on the rotation matrix and sliding mode control technology. Utilizing a fast terminal sliding mode surface, the first controller can fulfill the finite-time attitude tracking control task with disturbance rejection ability. The second controller can improve the system reliability when the actuator fault occurs. Rigorous mathematical analysis and proof concludes that the proposed controllers can make a spacecraft track the desired attitude command in finite time. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.
