Abstract :
Engineering Test Satellite VI (ETS-VI) is a three-axis-stabilized satellite launched by National Space Development Agency of Japan in 1994. Identification and attitude control experiments on orbit were planned as one of the ETS-VI experimental programs and were carried out in 1995. These experiments were the first tests fulfilled by Japan for a real on-orbit satellite. In this paper, we present certain results of the attitude control experiments using I-PD control and two degree-of-freedom control based on ℋ∞ control. Experimental results showed that these controllers provide the expected control performance and that these design methods are effective for satellite control
