Additional information
The paper presents a novel control algorithm of a state feedback nature and is designed to accommodate a variety of conditions, such as the general three-dimensional direction of rotation, initial and/or final angular rates, general alignment of three or four reaction wheels, torque and angular rate limits, and system time response limits. Simulations indicate that the novel algorithm allows smooth control, free of chattering. This can have significant effects on the imaging capability of a spacecraft as smoother control can lead to significantly better quality of images attained from Earth observation spacecraft.
