Title
Attitude Constrained Control On So(3): An Explicit Reference Governor Approach
Abstract
This paper focuses on the attitude constrained control of a rigid body in three dimensions, and proposes the Explicit Reference Governor (ERG) as a solution to handle constraints on SO(3). Two types of constraints are considered: (i) input torque constraints, and (ii) geometric conic pointing constraints. The objective of this paper is to design a control law that is able to steer the attitude of the rigid body to the desired attitude reference while enforcing constraints satisfaction at all times. To do so, the first step is to design a controller that makes the desired attitude asymptotically stable when constraints (i) and (ii) are neglected. Then, the proposed control scheme is augmented with a suitably designed ERG to add constraint-handling capabilities to the scheme. All the proposed solutions are defined in terms of elements on SO(3) and do not make use of any parameterizations such as e.g., quaternions and Euler angles. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
