Robust Adaptive Filter for Small Satellite Attitude Estimation Based on Magnetometer and Gyro

Based on magnetometer and gyro measurement, a sequential scheme is proposed to determine the orbit and attitude of small satellite simultaneously. In order to reduce the impact of orbital errors on attitude estimation, a robust adaptive Kalman filter is developed. It uses a scale factor and an adapt...
