Resumen
The cablelessness of non-contact close-proximity formation satellites can fundamentally avoid the influence of non-contact interface coupling effects and can further enhance the attitude pointing accuracy and stability of the payload module (PM). However, it also brings the problem of limited on-board resources and system latency. In this paper, an event-triggered attitude tracking controller of the support module (SM) that avoids the Zeno phenomenon was proposed. The update time of the control signal was determined by the event-triggering mechanism based on intermediate variables, thus, reducing the communication burden and actuator asynchrony between the two modules. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach was demonstrated by numerical simulations.
