Sistema de controle de altitude Satélites artificiais In recent years, the applications related to artificial satellites have considerably grown in several areas such as telecommunications, astronomy and meteorology. An important point that must be taken into account to place a satellite in orbit is the design of Attitude Control System (ACS) to control the angular position according to a fixed reference frame. Most satellites have in their structure the presence of flexible appendices such as solar panels, sails, or even antennas that may produce undesirable oscillations during satellite maneuvers and this can excite the whole system’s structure.

description In recent years, the applications related to artificial satellites have considerably grown in several areas such as telecommunications, astronomy and meteorology. An important point that must be taken into account to place a satellite in orbit is the design of Attitude Control System (ACS) to control the angular position according to a fixed reference frame. Most satellites have in their structure the presence of flexible appendices such as solar panels, sails, or even antennas that may produce undesirable oscillations during satellite maneuvers and this can excite the whole system’s structure. Therefore, it is important to develop an ACS that limits the excursion of the flexible structure and meet the control requirements for attitude stabilization. In this paper, a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme is proposed for ACS of a Rigid-Flexible Satellite. MPC handles structurally the system’s constraints in problem formulation by solving at each sampling instant an optimization problem that express the control objectives. As a result, MPC is able to track efficiently the references for attitude control by keeping the displacement of flexible structure within predetermined limits reducing vibration of the system.
