Abstract: | The body rate dynamics of a spin-stabilized satellite are perturbed by white noise. We consider the optimal control of body rates and fuel consumption. The corresponding deterministic problem is solved using calculus of variation. The stochastic problem is then solved to obtain a suboptimal controller in closed form. |
