Abstract

The HITSAT-1 is the first small satellite developed by Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) whose mission objective is to test several pivotal techniques. The large angle maneuver control is one of the pivotal techniques of HITSAT-1 and the instantaneous Eulerian axis control algorithm (IEACA) has been applied. Because of using the reaction wheels and magnetorquer as the control actuators, the combined control algorithm has been adopted during the large-angle maneuver course. The computer simulation based on the MATRIX×6.0 software has finished and the results indicated that the combined control algorithm reduced the reaction wheel speeds obviously, and the IEACA algorithm has the advantages of simplicity and efficiency.
