Small satellites use commercial off-the-shelf sensors and actuators for attitude determination
and control (ADC) to reduce the cost. These sensors and actuators are usually not as robust …

There has been an increasing interest in multi-disciplinary research on multisensor attitude
estimation technology driven by its versatility and diverse areas of application, such as …

Remaining useful life (RUL) prognostics is a fundamental premise to perform condition-
based maintenance (CBM) for a system subject to performance degradation. Over the past …

Abstract The integrated Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and Unscented Kalman Filter
(UKF) method can recursively estimate the attitude and attitude rates of a nanosatellite. At …

A current statistical model for maneuvering acceleration using an adaptive extended Kalman
filter (CS-MAEKF) algorithm is proposed to solve problems existing in conventional …

In this study an integrated singular value decomposition (SVD)/Extended Kalman filter (EKF)
attitude determination system is presented, in which the SVD and EKF algorithms are …

Increasing the computational efficiency of attitude estimation is a critical problem related to
modern spacecraft, especially for those with limited computing resources. In this paper, a …

In this letter, we present a novel algorithm to calculate attitude with data measured by a
magnetometer and an accelerometer. The calculation error for the attitude angles is not …

This paper describes the development of nontraditional attitude determination system that
can rely on vector measurements. Vectors coming from the selected sensor data and …

Due to mission requirements, fault detection and isolation protocols or budget restrictions, a
satellite is required to use most reliable attitude determination hardware, such as …
