Abstract
This paper addresses the event-triggered attitude control problem for spacecraft anti-unwinding reorientation with multiple attitude constraints in the presence of external disturbance. Based on a designed novel potential function(PF), a new sliding mode controller is proposed to guarantee the completeness of anti-unwinding reorientation with multiple attitude constraints and external disturbance. Different from existing continuous attitude reorientation controller, the static and dynamic event-triggered mechanisms, related with the sliding mode variable and disturbance bound, are then constructed. With the designed event-triggered sliding mode control schemes, the attitude system asymptotic stability, the satisfaction of attitude constraints with anti-unwinding action and free of Zeno phenomenon despite on external disturbance are proved theoretically. Numerical simulations results confirm that the proposed methods can significantly reduce resource usage while guaranteeing the desired performance.
