Abstract
An adaptive fault-tolerant control scheme based on a control gain re-construction is proposed to solve the actuator failure problem of a six-degree-of-freedom target-follower spacecraft formation system to ensure the position and attitude tracking performance of the tracking spacecraft against the target spacecraft, in this paper. An attitude-orbit integration model based on dual quaternions was given. In response to the uncertainties caused by actuator faults, a control signal was designed by constructing a symmetric positive definite dual control gain matrix. The minimum eigenvalue of this matrix was utilized to account for the uncertainty. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive control scheme was demonstrated through a simulation study.
