Composite Triggered Intermittent Control for Constrained Spacecraft Attitude Tracking

This paper focuses on the spacecraft attitude control problem with intermittent actuator activation, taking into account the attitude rotation rate limitation and input saturation issue simultaneously. To address this problem, we first propose a composite event-trigger mechanism, which composed of two state-dependent trigger that governing the activation and deactivation of actuators. Subsequently, by introducing the cascaded decomposition of Backstepping control philosophy, the designed trigger mechanism is then applied to the decomposed dynamical subsystem, providing a layered intermittent stabilization strategy. Further, the basic intermittent attitude controller is extended to a "constrained version" by introducing a strictly bounded virtual control law and an input saturation compensation auxiliary system. By analyzing the local boundedness of the system on each inter-event time interval, a uniformly, strictly decreasing upper boundary of the lumped system is further characterized, thereby completing the proof of the system's uniformly ultimately boundedness (UUB). Finally, numerical simulation results are illustrated to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Adaptive Reduced-Attitude Control for Spacecraft Boresight Alignment with Safety Constraints and Accuracy Requirements

This paper investigates the boresight alignment control problem under safety constraints and performance requirements, involving pointing-forbidden constraint, attitude angular velocity limitation, and pointing accuracy requirement. Meanwhile, the parameter uncertainty issue is taken into account simultaneously. To address this problem, we propose a modified composite framework integrating the Artificial Potential Field (APF) methodology and the Prescribed Performance Control (PPC) scheme. The APF scheme ensures safety, while the PPC scheme is employed to realize an accuracy-guaranteed control. A Switched Prescribed Performance Function (SPPF) is proposed to facilitate the integration, which monitors various constraints and further establishes compatibility between safety and performance concerns by leveraging a special PPC freezing mechanism. To further address the parameter uncertainty, we introduce the Immersion-and-Invariance (I\&I) adaptive control technique to derive an adaptive APF-PPC composite controller, further guaranteeing the closed-loop system's asymptotic convergence. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Spacecraft Attitude Pointing Control under Pointing Forbidden Constraints with Guaranteed Accuracy

This paper focuses on the attitude pointing control problem under pointing-forbidden constraints and performance constraints. The spacecraft is expected to align its sensor's boresight to a desired direction, while the terminal control accuracy and the attitude adjustment rapidity should also be guaranteed simultaneously. To resolve this problem, a switching controller structure is proposed in this paper based on the reduced-attitude representation, fusing the artificial potential field (APF) methodology and the Prescribed Performance Control (PPC) scheme together. Firstly, a novel artificial potential field is presented, and a particular function is designed for the mollification of the switching process, aiming at providing a smooth transition for the system status. Subsequently, we propose a special performance function, which can freeze the PPC part when necessary. In this way, the intrinsic contradictory between the fast attitude maneuver and forbidden direction avoidance is tackled Further, an asynchronous switching strategy is designed, guarantees the system's stability. Based on these proposed issues, a switching backstepping controller is developed, and a tracking differentiator(TD) is employed to generate a smooth approximation of differential signals. Numerical simulation results are illustrated to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
