Adaptive tracking control of PMSM for satellite ADCS hardware-in-the-loop simulation test

In this paper, the adaptive tracking control of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is described. The PMSM is used as a direct-drive actuator of a rotation table, which can provide hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) environment to test and calibrate satellite attitude determination and control system (ADCS). Based on Lyapunov stability theory and two-stage control strategy, the nonlinear tracking model-reference adaptive control (MRAC) law is developed. By using simplified second-order dynamic model method, the basic requirement of the dynamic relationship between the PMSM control system and ADCS has been derived. Experimental results have verified the correctness of the theoretical analysis
