Abstract
This paper presents a study on the estimator based on Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control scheme for Innovative Satellite (InnoSAT). By using LQR control scheme, the controller and the estimator has been derived for state space form in all three axes to stabilize the system’s performance. This study starts by converting the transfer functions of attitude control into state space form. Then, the step continues by finding the best value of weighting matrices of LQR in order to obtain the best value of controller gain, K. After that, the best value of L is obtained for the estimator gain. The value of K and L is combined in forming full order compensator and in the same time the reduced order compensator is also formed. Lastly, the performance of full order compensator is compared to reduced order compensator. From the simulation, results indicate that both types of estimators have presented good stability and tracking performance. However, reduced order estimator has simpler equation and faster convergence to zero than the full order estimator. This property is very important in developing a satellite attitude control for real-time implementation.
