Satellite Attitude Control with a six-Control Moment Gyro Cluster tested under Microgravity Conditions

Résumé

The attitude control of a satellite equipped with a six-Control Moment Gyro (CMG) cluster is studied, taking into account CMG failure cases and constraints like actuator saturation and real-time aspects. The design of the steering law that allocates the required torques among the actuators is made complex by singularities (gimbal angles of the CMGs where no torque can be created along an axis). This paper describes the problem of a constrained allocation applied to the CMG system, and explains the selected solution. An experimental setup with six CMGs has been designed. It calculates in real-time the attitude guidance laws and control loop. Agile manoeuvres simulating nanosatellite attitude reorientations have been successfully carried out during a European Space Agency (ESA) parabolic flight campaign. The results show that the steering law performs as expected even in case of CMG failures.
