Modeling and control of a Pico-satellite attitude using Fuzzy Logic Controller

Fuzzy logic concept was first conceived by Lotfi Zadeh in 1965 by incorporating rule based approach to solve control problems. The advantage of Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is that the control process can be controlled without knowing much knowledge of their dynamics. FLC is applied as the controlle...
