ROBUST H∞ DESIGN OF THE ATTITUDE CONTROL/MOMENTUM MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR A SPACE STATION

Through input-output decom position of structured param eter uncertainties of the con- trolled plant, the robustcontrolproblem ofspace station attitude system w ith param eteruncertainties is converted to a conventionaldisturbance rejection H∞ controller design problem , then a full-state feedback H∞ robustcontrollerisform ulated, w hich can be solved using the Glover-Doyle algorithm . The proposed m ethod w asapplied to the attitude control/m om entum m anagem ent (ACMM) system ofa space station, and tw o kinds of param eter uncertainties w hich appear m ost frequently in space- craftengineering w ere considered. Sim ulation results show ed efficiency ofthe given m ethod.
