Abstract
A three-axis attitude control for a low-orbiting satellite. A sensor which measures in two axes is a magnetometer, and a satellite is positioned on an inclined orbit at an inclination angle of approximately 25 degrees to approx. 90 degrees. The satellite has been provided with an overall spin by spin wheels, and actuators generate torque on all three axes of the satellite. Accordingly, this is applicable to three-axis attitude control of a low-orbiting satellite that includes a sensor which measures in two axes and that includes one or several spin wheels.
