Description/Abstract
This paper analyses, and provides implemetation algorithms for, stabiization and manoeuvre control of two nano-satellites subject to control and state constraints, bounded disturbance and measurement error. The approach used is a modification of robust time-optimal control that reduces energy consumption. Alternative solutions of the constrained time-optimal control problem require computation of robust controllabiltiy sets, where in most practical applications these sets are impossibly complex. In this paper, we avoid this problem by presenting a novel and effective method (the generalized diamond mehtod) for computing inner approximations to the controllabiltiy sets. These inner approximations are then used to provide effective nonlinear control of the constrained system with little loss in performance.
