Estimation of Pico-Satellite Attitude Dynamics and External Torques via Unscented Kalman Filter

In this study, an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) algorithm is designed for estimating the attitude of a picosatellite and the in-orbit external disturbance torques.The estimation vector is formed by the satellite’s attitude, angular rates, and the unknown constant components of the external disturban...
