Adaptive external torque estimation by means of tracking a Lyapunov function
Schaub, H.; Junkins, J.L.; Robinett, R.D. - 2010
A real-time method is presented to adoptively estimate three-dimensional unmodeled external torques acting on a spacecraft. This is accomplished by forcing the tracking error dynamics to follow the Lyapunov function underlying the feedback control law. For the case where the external torque is...

Modeling and identification of parallel and feedback nonlinear systems
Chen, Hai-Wen - 2009
Structural classification and parameter estimation (SCPE) methods have been used for studying single-input single. output (SISO) parallel and feedback nonlinear system models from input-output (I-O) measurements. The uniqueness of the I-O mappings of different models and parameter uniqueness of...
