Abstract

The primary goal of this work is to present the design of sliding mode control, based on the backstepping approach, for the attitude tracking control of a micro-satellite, using reaction wheels. The presented technique is developed by combining sliding mode control with the backstepping technique, to achieve a fast and accurate tracking response. Firstly, backstepping and sliding mode controllers are developed. Then, the hybrid controller is designed. The selected controllers are applied to a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) micro-satellite, and they are compared in terms of accuracy, convergence time, power consumption, and maximum reaction wheel velocity. The simulation results clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented technique.
