Using of H-infinity control method in attitude control system of rigid-flexible satellite

Abstract

The attitude control systems of satellites with rigid and flexible components are demanding more and more better performance resulting in the development of several methods control. For that reason, control design methods presently available, including parameters and states estimation, robust and adaptive control, as well as linear and nonlinear theory, need more investigation to know their capability and limitations. In this paper the investigated technique is H-Infinity method in the performance of the Attitude Control System of a Rigid-Flexible Satellite. Copyright © 2009 X. C. Mendez Cubillos and L. C.
