Dynamic adaptive saturated sliding mode control for deployment of tethered satellite system

Abstract This paper presents a novel adaptive dynamic sliding mode scheme for the deployment of the tethered satellite system. To overcome the limited inputs of the dynamic model, a new scalable dimensionless transformation and strictly bounded terms are designed, which guarantee the existence of the ratio between limited inputs and command signals. The adaptive saturated sliding mode control scheme is proposed to govern the tether deployment by introducing the adaptive rate into the system gain. The stability analysis indicates that this measure can eliminate the uncertainty caused by the input limitation and guarantee the asymptotically stability of the deployment dynamics. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control laws.
