The problem of global tracking control without velocity measurement of the so-called Euler}Lagrange systems has been paid a lot of attention for the past several years. In this note, a nice property of one-degree-of-freedom Euler}Lagrange systems is highlighted, which in particular allows us to obta

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper the problem of attitude tracking control for a rigid spacecraft is addressed. It is assumed that only attitude measurements are available, and thus spacecraft's angular velocity has to be properly estimated. Two alternative schemes are proposed in which the unit quaternion is adopted to represent the orientation. In the ΓΏrst scheme, a second-order model-based observer is adopted to estimate the angular velocity used in the control law. In the second scheme, an estimate of the angular velocity error is obtained through a lead ΓΏlter. Su cient conditions ensuring local exponential stability of the two controllers are derived via Lyapunov analysis.

In this paper, we revisit the classical problem of attitude tracking for a rigid body. The interesting di erence in the formulation is the assumption that only attitude measurements are available. We proceed to construct globally stabilizing control laws in terms of a minimal set of three-dimensiona
The controller comprises an internal model, a robust globally bounded state feedback controller, and a high-gain observer.
