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

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.
