Spacecraft Attitude Control Under Reaction Wheel Constraints Using Control Lyapunov and Control Barrier Functions

This paper introduces a novel control strategy for agile spacecraft attitude control, addressing reaction wheel-related input and state constraints. An optimal-decay control Lyapunov function quadratic program stabilizes the system and mitigates chattering at low sampling frequencies, while control barrier functions enforce hard state constraints. Numerical simulations validate the method's practicality and efficiency for real-time agile spacecraft attitude control.
