dc.description.abstractIn this paper, the problem of optimal time-varying attitude tracking control for rigid spacecraft with system constraints and unknown additive disturbances is considered. Through the design of a new non-linear tube-based robust model predictive control (TRMPC) algorithm, a dual-loop cascaded tracking control framework is established. The proposed TRMPC algorithm explicitly considers the effect of disturbances and applies tightened system constraints to predict the motion of the nominal system. The obtained optimal control action is then combined with a non-linear feedback law such that the actual system trajectories can always be steered within a tube region centred around the nominal solution. To facilitate the recursive feasibility of the optimization process and guarantee the input-to-state stability of the tracking control process, the terminal controller and the corresponding terminal invariant set are also constructed. The effectiveness of using the proposed dual-loop TRMPC control scheme to track reference attitude trajectories is validated by experimental studies. A number of comparative studies were carried out, and the obtained results reveal that the proposed design is able to achieve more promising constraint handling and attitude tracking performance than that of the other newly developed methods investigated in this research.en_UK
