Abstract

The main objective of this PhD research is to investigate advanced control design techniques and architectures for Multi-Actuation/Multi-Body spacecraft. This multi-team project between UC3M and Airbus in Friedrichshafen, Germany, will allow to use the future ATHENA X-ray space telescope as benchmark.
