Abstract
This paper deals with spacecraft attitude control using sliding mode techniques. Two distinctions of the proposed method from most reported methods are: 1) the measure of attitude error used is intrinsically defined, Euclidean-geometric, and intuitive; and 2) a novel, dynamically nonlinear sliding function is used that results in a simple control law. As an example we consider the ground station tracking of UASat
