Attitude control system failure cases response using operational actuators

M. Ovchinnikov, S. Tkachev, D. Roldugin


Abstract: Typical magneto-gyroscopic attitude control system failures are considered, “Chibis-M” microsatellite is used as an example. Mission recovery for each case is investigated. It is impossible to upload new attitude control algorithms on board. Gravitational boom is an auxiliary component of the attitude control system element and it is considered separately.

Keywords: magneto-gyroscopic attitude control system, gravitational boom.
