Description:
This paper presents a new sequential design procedure for determining an optimal CMG (control moment gyro) momentum management and attitude control system for the Space Station Freedom. First, the Space Station equations of motion are linearized and uncoupled, and the associated state space equations are defined. Next, a new sequential procedure is used for the development of a continuous quadratic regulator with eigenvalue placement in a specified region of the complex plane. The regional pole assignment method is utilized since it is best suited for tradeoffs between eigenvalue locations and robustness with respect to parameter variations, sensor failures, implementation accuracies and gain reductions. The matrix sign function is used for solving the Riccati equations which appear in the design procedure. Simulation results are given which show that the resultant design provides desired system performance.
