Abstract This paper presents a finite-time command-filtered approximation-free attitude tracking control for rigid spacecraft. A novel finite-time prescribed performance function (FTPPF) is first constructed to ensure that the attitude tracking errors converge to the predefined region in finite time. Then, a finite-time error compensation mechanism is constructed and incorporated into the backstepping control design, such that the differentiation of virtual control signals in recursive steps can be avoided to overcome the singularity issue. Compared with most of approximation-based attitude control methods, less computational burden and lower complexity are guaranteed by the proposed approximation-free control scheme due to the avoidance of using any function approximations. Simulations are given to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

Attitude Tracking Control

Abstract This paper investigates the problem of the finite-time attitude tracking control for rigid spacecrafts with external disturbances and inertia uncertainties. Firstly, a finite-time approach is designed to achieve attitude tracking control of the rigid spacecraft in absence of disturbances and inertia uncertainties and the time of convergence can be chosen in advance. Then, the integral sliding mode combined with barrier function-based adaptive laws is proposed to reject the disturbances and inertia uncertainties, and at the same time, a barrier function-based adaptive method can also ensure the solutions of the rigid spacecraft system belonging to a stipulated vicinity of the intended variables starting from the initial moment and the uncertainties' upper bound is not overestimated. Finally, numerical simulation is provided to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed control protocol.

The Stability

This paper studies the attitude-tracking control problem of spacecraft considering on-orbit refuelling. A time-varying inertia model is developed for spacecraft on-orbit refuelling, which actually includes two processes: fuel in the transfer pipe and fuel in the tank. Based upon the inertia model, an adaptive attitude-tracking controller is derived to guarantee the stability of the resulted closed-loop system, as well as asymptotic convergence of the attitude-tracking errors, despite performing refuelling operations. Finally, numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness and performance of the proposed control scheme.

Attitude Tracking Control

The finite-time attitude tracking control for gliding-guided projectile with unmatched and matched disturbance is investigated. An adaptive variable observer is used to provide estimation for the unmeasured state which contains unmatched disturbance. Then, an improved adaptive twisting sliding mode algorithm is proposed to compensate for the matched disturbance dynamically with better transient quality. Finally, a proof of the finite-time convergence of the closed-loop system under the disturbance observer and the adaptive twisting sliding mode-based controller is derived using the Lyapunov technique. This attitude tracking control scheme does not require any information on the bounds of uncertainties. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method which is able to acquire the minimum possible values of the control gains guaranteeing the finite-time convergence performs well in chattering attenuation and tracking precision.

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.
