The problem of attitude stabilization for a small spacecraft using only magnetic coils as actuators is considered and a novel approach to the problem is given. A solution to the magnetic attitude control problem in term of model-based predictive control is proposed and analyzed. Simulation results are also given, which show the feasibility of the approach.
Keywords: Attitude control, constraints, predictive control, satellite control applications, spacecraft vehicles, time-varying systems
