“…These methods exploit the physical knowledge of satellite dynamics to elaborate a mathematical model that represents the evolution of the system's state (dynamics and kinematics). Model-based approaches use several off-theshelf techniques such as Kalman filters (Mehra, Rago & Seereeram, 1998;Gao, Zhang, Zhang, He & Lu, 2019;Beyon, Mok, Woo & Bang, 2019;Li, Liu, Zhang, Wang & Shen, 2019;Lopez-Encarnacion, Fonod & Bergner, 2019), sliding mode observer (Alwi, Edwards & Marcos, 2010;Gao, Zhang & He, 2018;Gao, Zhou, Qian & Lin, 2018;Nagesh & Edwards 2011), and H∞, H2 schemes (Nemati, Safavi Hamami & Zemouche, 2019;Henry, 2008). These methods suffer from two main drawbacks: i) the non-availability/nonreliability of the physical model, and ii) the built model fails to efficiently represent the fault modes, nonlinearities, and non-stationary character of the space environment (Henna et al 2020).…”
