Spacecraft Modeling, Attitude Determination, and Control: Quaternion-Based Appro

Description: Spacecraft Modeling, Attitude Determination, and Control by Yaguang Yang This book discusses all spacecraft attitude control related topics: spacecraft modeling, spacecraft attitude determination and estimation, and spacecraft attitude controls. It also presents a brief background on rotation sequence representations and often-used reference frames. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This book discusses all spacecraft attitude control-related topics: spacecraft (including attitude measurements, actuator, and disturbance torques), modeling, spacecraft attitude determination and estimation, and spacecraft attitude controls. Unlike other books addressing these topics, this book focuses on quaternion-based methods because of its many merits. The book lays a brief, but necessary background on rotation sequence representations and frequently used reference frames that form the foundation of spacecraft attitude description. It then discusses the fundamentals of attitude determination using vector measurements, various efficient (including very recently developed) attitude determination algorithms, and the instruments and methods of popular vector measurements. With available attitude measurements, attitude control designs for inertial point and nadir pointing are presented in terms of required torques which are independent of actuators in use. Given the required control torques, some actuators are not able to generate the accurate control torques, therefore, spacecraft attitude control design methods with achievable torques for these actuators (for example, magnetic torque bars and control moment gyros) are provided. Some rigorous controllability results are provided.The book also includes attitude control in some special maneuvers, such as orbital-raising, docking and rendezvous, that are normally not discussed in similar books. Almost all design methods are based on state-spaced modern control approaches, such as linear quadratic optimal control, robust pole assignment control, model predictive control, and gain scheduling control. Applications of these methods to spacecraft attitude control problems are provided. Appendices are provided for readers who are not familiar with these topics. Author Biography Yaguang Yang received his B.S. (1982) and M.S. (1985) degrees from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China. From 1985 to 1990, he was a lecturer at Zhejiang University in China. In 1996 he received a PhD degree from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park.

Review "This book provides a good and comprehensive overview of spacecraft attitude dynamics, determination and control, including advances in the quaternion-based approach, with application to practical problems such as coupled attitude and orbit control and model predictive optimal control with realistic actuators constraints. In conclusion, the book is a good and useful resource for researchers and research minded engineers wishing to develop a more detailed understanding of some of the latest advances in robust pole placement and model predictive control to spacecraft attitude control. The quaternion based approach is applied to practical attitude estimation and attitude control problems ranging from nadir pointing using reaction wheels or CMGs to momentum dumping using magnetic torquers and coupled attitude and orbit control for spacecraft docking."— Nadjim Horri, Coventry University, The Aeronautical Journal, Oct 2020 Review Quote "This book provides a good and comprehensive overview of spacecraft attitude dynamics, determination and control, including advances in the quaternion-based approach, with application to practical problems such as coupled attitude and orbit control and model predictive optimal control with realistic actuators constraints.
