Abstract | ||
This paper introduces a theoretical description, force, and torque analysis of a Reaction Control Thruster (RCT) used as an actuator in Attitude Determination and Control Subsystem (ADCS). Mathematical formalization, realization, and implementation are offered to implement the RCT model using Matlab-Simulink. Furthermore, this paper proposes an accurate RCT Simulink model to control the orientation and stabilizes the Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellite within its orbit. Finally, a comparative analysis is carried out with an existing satellite platform (Eurostar-3000) based on the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) for the delta velocity (delta-V) parameter. The outcomes of the model simulation validated the effectiveness of the proposed approach. | ||
