Consensus of Multiple Spacecraft Systems Over Switching Networks by Attitude Feedback
Tianqi Wang, Jie Huang · IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems · 2019
In this paper, we further consider the leader-following attitude consensus problem of multiple rigid body systems subject to jointly connected switching networks by a distributed attitude feedback control law. Since the network is switching, the closed-loop system is discontinuous. We overcome this difficulty by a generalized Barbalat's lemma. Moreover, we remove two restrictive assumptions in the literature. As a result, our control law is fully distributed and the result is global.
