Abstract :
Examines the use of nonlinear regulation for attitude control of a satellite controlled by internal momentum rotors. Specifically, the nonlinear method using the state dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) developed by Cloutier, D´Souza, and Mracek (1996) is applied and examined under numerical simulations
