Abstract

The nonlinear control design problem for large angle reorientation manoeuvre of spacecraft has a proper structure for the direct application of backstepping design as its dynamics and kinematics are naturally in a cascade form. In this paper, the robustness of the backstepping control against the uncertainties in the moment of inertia matrix is investigated and a sufficient condition for the robust stability is derived. Numerical simulations show the validity of the condition.
