Magnetic Attitude Stabilization of Satellites Using Guidance Control
Abstract
The technological achievements allow to create small satellites capable to solve problems usually considered as problems for a big and expensive spacecraft. These small satellites are of interest because have an attractive short period of design and low cost. The guidance stabilization problem for these satellites is considered. The torque is created by interaction between the magnetic field generated by magnetic coils installed on the satellite body and the geomagnetic field. Qualitative analysis and results of numerical simulation are presented.
