Sensor filter designs for large flexible spacecraft
Traditional control methods may excite flexible modes causing degraded performance or instability of large flexible space structures (LFSS). Control techniques developed for control of LFSS requires a numerical model of the structure and some knowledge of model error. This will be increasingly difficult with the complex space structures planned for the future. If filters could be used to condition the sensor output, control design would be less demanding. This paper is presented in viewgraph format.
