Abstract

There are three kinds of algorithms(2-ARE, mu-synthesis, LMI) for controller design using closed-loop shaping method. This paper provides the summary of background theory of three algorithms and $H_{\infty}$ controller design results for spacecraft attitude control using the three controller design tools of Matlab$^{TM}$ Toolbox for comparison. As a result, it reveals that LMI design method is more reliable as well as easier than others for spacecraft attitude control design. Comparison results are as follow: 2-ARE method and LMI method provide almost same results in robust stability, robust performance and control authority level. But 2-ARE method is more sensitive than LMI method with respect to proper design of weighting functions: 2-ARE method is more difficult than LMI method in weighting function design. The design result of mu-synthesis method shows worse performance and requires bigger control authority than others.

폐루프 기준으로 $H_{\infty}$ 제어기를 설계하는 알고리즘에는 3가지(2-ARE, mu-synthesis, LMI) 방법이 있다. 본 논문에서 3가지 $H_{\infty}$ 제어기 설계 알고리즘에 대한 기초 이론을 종합하고, Matlab$^{TM}$에 구현된 함수가 사용될 경우, 실무입장에서 가장 적절하다고 판단되는 $H_{\infty}$ 제어기 설계 알고리즘 제시를 위해 인공위성 자세 제어기 설계 후 결과를 비교 분석하였다: 2-ARE 방법과 LMI 방법은 robust stability, robust performance 및 control authority 측면에서 거의 유사하였으나, LMI 방법에 비해 2-ARE 방법이 weighting 함수설계에 더 민감하였고, mu-synthesis 방법은 다른 2가지 설계 방법에 비해 성능면에서 다소 떨어지고, control authority가 크게 나타났다. 따라서 인공위성 자세제어 설계를 위해 실무 관점에서 LMI 방법이 더 편리한 설계 알고리즘이라는 결론을 얻었다.
