Universal adaptive control of satellite formation flying [PDF]
International Journal of Control, 2005 In this paper, a new universal adaptive control scheme for satellite formation flying is developed. The underlying idea of our design is to combine the domination design and the monotone adaptive gain. This scheme is guaranteed to have the properties of position tracking and full adaptivity against all parameters.
