Enhanced attitude control structure for small satellites with reaction wheels

Purpose: This paper aims to describe a design enhancement for the satellite attitude control system using reaction wheels, and the wheel momentum unloading using magnetorquers. Design/methodology/approach: The proportional – integral–derivative-controller and active force control (AFC) schemes are d...
