چکیده

The Problem: Robotic spacecraft for exploration of the solar system and beyond must be designed to navigate and operate in harsh, dynamic and uncertain environments. Such operating conditions make it difficult for the systems engineers and programmers responsible for encoding onboard software sequences to meet the requirements for very high reliability. We propose a robust solution to challenging sequencing problems (e.g. Planetary Entry, Descent and Landing), which combines discrete configuration commanding with continuous navigation and control, and will allow systems engineers to generate ”executable specifications” of desired spacecraft behavior.

Design of Nonlinear Robust Controller and Observer for Control of a Flexible Spacecraft

Two robust nonlinear controllers along with a nonlinear observer have been developed in this study to control a 1D nonlinear flexible spacecraft. The first controller is based on dynamic inversion, while the second one is composed of dynamic inversion and µ-synthesis controllers. The extension of dynamic inversion approach to flexible spacecraft is impeded by the non-minimum phase characteristi...

Fuzzy Sliding Mode for Spacecraft Formation Control in Eccentric Orbits

The problem of relative motion control for spacecraft formation flying in eccentric orbits is considered in this paper. Due to the presence of nonlinear dynamics and external disturbances, a robust fuzzy sliding mode controller is developed. The slopes of sliding surfaces of the conventional sliding mode controller are tuned according to error states using a fuzzy logic and reach the pre-define...

Active Vibration Suppression of a Nonlinear Flexible Spacecraft

In this article, the issue of attitude control and active vibration suppression of a nonlinear flexible spacecraft is assessed through piezoelectric patches as actuator and sensors. Two controller loops are applied: the inner loop, to make the panel vibration damped through piezoelectric patches; and the outer loop, to perform spacecraft maneuver using the reaction wheel acting on the hub. An o...
