A Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control Algorithm for Solar Arrays Pointing Leveraging Sun Angle and Angular Rates Measurements
The capability to orient the solar arrays of a spacecraft toward the Sun is an ultimate asset for any attitude determination and control subsystem (ADCS). This ability should be maintained in any operative circumstance, either nominal or off-nominal, to avoid the loss of the entire space-borne syste...
