Abstract

This paper investigates the East-West station keeping strategy of geostationary satellites which must be performed to correct the drift caused by natural perturbation forces. The attitude control requirements as well as the pointing accuracy must be maintained during the station-keeping maneuver in order to assure the mission services. The propulsion system (chemical thrusters) is used to control both the orbit control (station keeping) and the attitude control where the ON/OFF thrusters pulses are managed using Bang-Bang controller with dead-band technique. Simulation results can clearly illustrate the feasibility and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
