A Semi-Physical Real-Time Simulation Platform for Satellite Attitude Control System Based on MATLAB

This paper introduces a method of building a real-time simulation platform for satellite attitude control system including one host PC and two target PCs based on MATLAB. The results show the consistency of digital simulation and real-time simulation, and the satisfaction of real-time characteristic. This method is not only suitable for the digital real-time simulation test, but also can be extended to the semi-physical real-time simulation test of satellite attitude control system by adding some corresponding hardware.
