Item Open Access Robust sliding mode controller design for orbital payload deploying spacecraft(CEAS, 2024-06-11) Platanitis, Konstantinos; Felicetti, Leonard; Upadhyay, Saurabh; Capicchiano, LeonardoThis work demonstrates the feasibility of usage of a sliding mode controller in the case of orbital payload deployers. The proposed control law suggested herein allows for disturbance rejection during the payload deployment phase, as well as provide a basis for angular rate tracking purposes. The stability of the control law is determined by Lyapunov theory, and realistic spacecraft simulations have been created to verify the robustness in the presence of disturbances as well as the general tracking capabilities.
