A Fault-Tolerant and Anti-Disturbance Control Based on Sliding Mode Iterative Learning Law for Attitude of Satellite

Abstract

To cope with the problem of the degradation of actuation effectiveness caused by actuator deflection or fault in the attitude and orbit control system (AOCS) of spacecraft on-orbit, an attitude fault-tolerant and anti-disturbance control scheme is proposed based on a sliding mode iterative learning law, in which the pseudo control input is applied to design the sliding mode controller to ensure the AOCS tracks a reference trajectory precisely after some fault occurred; By analyzing the Lyapunov stability, a novel adaptive iterative learning law is developed, which in term of the tracking error, determine some parameters in controller on-line to address the actuator failure and external disturbance. Numerical simulation experiments show that the fault-tolerant and anti-disturbance controller can ameliorate actuation malfunction and compensate the influence of external disturbance effectively.
