Abstract:In general, precise attitude information is required to control a ground simulator, which is designed to simulate attitude control of spacecraft. Two algorithms are well-known to determine the attitude through two or more observation vectors. One is the deterministic method, such as the TRI-axis Attitude Determination (TRIAD) algorithm, and the other is the optimal method, such as the QUaternion ESTimator (QUEST) algorithm. This paper suggests a new efficient attitude determination algorithm, which the authors… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
