Satellite Attitude Control by Magnetic Torquers with Variable Magnetic Intensity for Optimization of Power Consumption

This Paper presents a dynamic model of a micro-satellite in Mesbah class. At this model aerodynamic torque and solar radiation pressure torques are considered as disturbance torques. Gravity gradient torque is assumed as stabilizing torque and acts as a passive controller. Magnetic torquers act as an active controller. There are three methods of optimization of power consumption; first using LQR controller, secondly using the mapping function (which is suggested to ensure that the generated magnetic moment by the coils is perpendicular to the local magnetic field vector), and finally powering on control system over the earth stations only for the purpose of power saving.
