Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleFixed-Star Tracking Attitude Control of Spacecraft Using Single-Gimbal Control Moment GyrosSangwon Kwon, Yuki Tani, Hiroshi Okubo, Takashi ShimomuraProblem statement: A cluster of small-sized Single-Gimbal Control Moment Gyros (SGCMGs) is proposed as an attitude control actuator for high-speed maneuver of small satellites. There exists a singularity problem what is peculiar to the CMG system. Approach: This study presented a simple singularity avoidance steering law using the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) algorithm. Results: Capability of the present steering method … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,978 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuadrotor Obstacle Avoidance Based on Integral BacksteppingLianchuan Zhang, Young Baik Kim, Kil To ChongThis paper addressed obstacle avoidance problem of a quadrotor in outdoor environment. Path planning was finished by employing classical Dijkstra algorithm and the controller of the quadrotor adopted integral backstepping method. In order to get a smooth trajectory with time optimal and acceleration constraints properties, quantic polynomials were utilized to generate trajectory file. The scheme is particularly practical and useful … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 7 · 27 Jul 2016 · 6,981 accessesView PDF Cite
