Abstract :
This paper presents the preliminary results in applying the linear adaptive control techniques of Johnson to a pointing sytem, namely, the Gamma-Ray Imaging Device (GRID) experiment. A brief description of the system configuration and modeling efforts is presented along with simulation results of the primary control tasks. Advantages of the technique include a straightforward design methodology and constant controller parameters.
