Fully Distributed Adaptive Fault-Tolerant Attitude Synchronization for a Team of Heterogenous Minisatellites

In this paper,the fault-tolesant attitude aynchronisation aontrol problem for a team of bet-soganua man leatellita in addrsed,subject to multaple actuator faulta and uneertainties in the satellite dynamles.A fully distributed adapSe fault-tokerant controlker,completely inde pendently of the knowledge of the gobal infarmation,is propoaed to achieve the desired attstude aynchranlatin.The attitade tracking aror of the glohal clased-loop eantrol aystem is paoven to onverge into a givan naighborbood of the origin ultimately.Simmlation rasults are givan to validate the afectivenas and advantaga of the propased adaptive controller dor the belerogenaou satellite formation flying team,against the infuenoe of actuator faults and umeertaintin.
