Abstract
In this paper we consider the problem of obtaining optimal controllers which minimize a quadratic cost function for the rotational motion of a rigid body. We are not concerned with the attitude of the body and we consider only the evolution of the angular velocity as described by Euler´s equations. We obtain conditions which guarantee the existence of linear stabilizing optimal and suboptimal controllers. These controllers have a very simple structure
