Abstract

This paper aims to address the robust control problem of rigid spacecraft attitude maneuvers in the presence of inertia matrix uncertainty and external disturbance. A back-stepping based adaptive sliding mode control (B-ASMC) design is proposed as a solution, where the upper bounds of the parametric uncertainty and disturbance are not required in advance. Compared to current adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) design, the B-ASMC design has two advantages. Theoretically, the asymptotical stability of the attitude states rather than the sliding function is guaranteed. Practically, the over-adaptation problem in current ASMC design is alleviated and the system performance is improved. Detailed design principle and rigorous closed-loop system stability analysis are provided. A large angle attitude maneuver is employed in the numerical simulation to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
