Fault Tolerant Digital Attitude Control and Animation of a Satellite Motion
Yevgeny Somov, Chingiz Hajiyev, Tatyana Somova
Well-known minimal-redundant scheme General Electric have opportunity to control of a satellite orientation at a fault of any one reaction wheel. In the paper we consider the problem of the survivability guarantee for the attitude control system at a critical situation -- a fault of any two reaction wheels. We present the results on efficiency of the suggested method for a land-survey mini-satellite at such situation and results on computer animation of the satellite spatial motion.
