Description
Summary:High-quality control method is of great importance for the attitude determination and maneuvering of spacecraft in the on-orbit servicing technology. Prescribed performance control methodology, as a potential way, has gained considerable attention due to its quantitative description for the transient and steady-state control performance in recent years. Thus, this article constructs a survey for the prescribed performance control methodology along with the detailed analysis of the attitude control methods in the existing reported works. Then, the basic structure of prescribed performance control methodology is discussed in theory, and application to the attitude control of postcapture spacecraft works as an example to further explain the procedure of prescribed performance control methodology. Finally, with consideration of some vital aerospace applications, potential open issues of the prescribed performance control methodology are analyzed.
