Dear visitors and SCA members,

CNES Automatic Control Systems network (COMET SCA) aims at sharing knowledge and skills between CNES, research labs and companies in the area of automatic control of space vehicles, such as attitude control of satellites, launchers, stratospheric balloons, or payloads, guidance and navigation of spacecrafts. Therefore, thematic workshops and seminars are organized.

Topics of interest for COMET SCA are automatic control area (linear and nonlinear control, robust control, filtering, modelling, identification), but also the design and implementation of control systems (actuator and sensor selection, control algorithms and fault management, real-time implementation, end of life operations).

Subscribe to COMET SCA to get informed of upcoming events. Become a member to have access to past events resources and share your knowledge and technical experience on automatic control in or outside the space domain.

Enjoy our website and see you soon !

    Modelisation and Control of space vehicules with manipulation systems

    SCA - Automatic Control Systems
    L'avènement des opérations en orbite, telles que l'assemblage et la maintenance de satellites, ouvre de nouvelles perspectives pour l'exploration spatiale en réduisant les coûts de lancement et en offrant une plus grande flexibilité. Cependant, ces opérations complexes nécessitent le développement de systèmes robotiques capables de fonctionner dans un environnement hostile et de réaliser des tâches de haute précision. Les applications potentielles sont nombreuses, allant de la construction de stations spatiales ...

    ROBUST ATTITUDE CONTROL AGAINST SLOSHING EFFECTS

    SCA - Automatic Control Systems
    Most attitude control scenarios are highly affected by fuel slosh dynamics that must be carefully taken into account to preserve pointing accuracy. Since such dynamics are not easily predictable, standard strategies consist of bounding the performances of the control system to avoid interactions between the rigid dynamics of the spacecraft and the oscillating liquid motion inside the fuel tank. Thanks to a recently developed control-oriented CFD-based fuel slosh model, alternative ...
