Unlike other texts in this field, it emphasizes quaternion-based methods due to their numerous advantages. The book begins by providing a concise yet essential background on rotation sequence representations and commonly used reference frames, forming the foundation of spacecraft attitude description. It then delves into the fundamentals of attitude determination using vector measurements, exploring various efficient algorithms, and discussing the instruments and methods employed for vector measurements. With available attitude measurements, the book presents attitude control designs for inertial point and nadir pointing, focusing on achieving torques that are independent of the specific actuators in use. In cases where certain actuators cannot generate accurate control torques, the book offers spacecraft attitude control design methods that utilize achievable torques, such as magnetic torque bars and control moment gyros. Furthermore, rigorous controllability results are presented.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book also extends its coverage to include attitude control in specialized maneuvers, such as orbital-raising, docking, and rendezvous, which are typically overlooked in similar publications. Nearly all design methodologies employed are based on state-spaced modern control approaches, including linear quadratic optimal control, robust pole assignment control, model predictive control, and gain scheduling control. Practical applications of these methods to spacecraft attitude control problems are extensively discussed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo enhance the reader's understanding, appendices are provided, offering additional insights and references for those interested in further exploring the topics covered in the book. Whether you are a researcher, engineer, or student involved in spacecraft attitude control, this comprehensive resource will provide you with a deep understanding of the principles, algorithms, and applications necessary for designing and implementing effective attitude control systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 692g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 242 x 17 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781138331501                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yaguang Yang","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105014837498,"sku":"9781138331501","price":177.12,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/71b371756ff6ee69dce095b1f90ec777.jpg?v=1626491027","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/spacecraft-modeling-attitude-determination-and-control-quaternion-based-approach-1","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
