Impulsive Control of Attitude Satellite With Quaternion ‎Parameters

This article uses impulsive control along with quaternion parameters instead of euler angles in kinematics equations of satellite. ‎the quaternion parameters are applied to overcome singularity problem in the numerical solution. ‎it is assumed that the satellite is subjected to deterministic external perturbations. ‎at first, ‎the chaotic behavior of system is investigated when there is no control on the system. ‎then, ‎impulsive control is used to stabilize the satellite attitude around the equilibrium point of origin. ‎finally, ‎simulation results are given to visualize the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed ‎method.
