  • Abstract
    Gives an analysis and provides implementable solutions for constrained control problems of stabilization and maneuver control of two nano-satellites. The methodology provides solutions under various constraints of propulsion and differential drag control: magnitude constraints, disturbances and measurement errors are taken into account. The methods are illustrated in simulation of a realistic nano-satellite pair
