Attitude motion of a satellite equipped with magnetic control system is considered. System
comprises of three magnetorquers and one three-axis magnetometer. Satellite is stabilized …

An algorithm of satellite formation flying control in the Low-Earth Orbit using the
aerodynamic force is considered. A simple model of the aerodynamic force that takes into …

This paper proposes using TRIAD and Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) algorithms in a
sequential architecture as a part of a small satellite attitude estimation algorithm. This …

Small satellites use commercial off-the-shelf sensors and actuators for attitude determination
and control (ADC) to reduce the cost. These sensors and actuators are usually not as robust …

Искусственные спутники Земли практически всегда оснащены системой ориентации
для обеспечения требуемого углового движения вокруг своего центра масс. В связи с …

The performance of the attitude motion determination algorithm of the SiriusSat-1
nanosatellite is presented. Onboard magnetometer measurements are used. These …

Attitude estimation is a critical component of the Attitude Determination and Control System
(ADCS) of any satellite. It is used to convert the sensor observation data to an estimated …

Nanosatellites have become an integral part of space research in recent years, especially
for universities and non-profit organizations. Attitude estimation is a key function that is …

The paper describes the measuring aids (magnetometers and light sensors) and attitude
determination algorithms of SamSat-ION nanosatellite. The Kalman filter based on …

The advance of space technology allowed small satellites to accomplish missions that were
