Robust randomized trajectory planning for satellite attitude tracking control
This thesis presents a novel guidance strategy that uses a randomized trajectory planning algorithm in a closed-loop fashion to provide robust motion planning and execution. By closing the guidance, navigation, and control loop around a randomized trajectory planning algorithm, a robotic vehicle …

An attitude determination and control system for small satellites
A flexible, robust attitude determination and control (ADC) system is presented for small satellite platforms. Using commercial-off-the-shelf sensors, reaction wheels, and magnetorquers which fit within the 3U CubeSat form factor, the system delivers arc-minute pointing precision. The ADC system …

Constant Orbital Momentum Equilibrium Trajectories of a Gyrostat-Satellite
This dissertation investigates attitude transition maneuvers of a gyrosat-satellite between relative equilibria. The primary challenge in transitioning between relative equilibria is the proper adjustment of the system angular momentum so that upon completing the transition maneuver the …
