Abstract
This paper investigates an attitude reorientation control scheme of spacecraft, considering attitude forbidden zone and external disturbances. A novel potential barrier function is proposed with an attitude constraint term and a dynamical scaling term. Here the dynamical scaling term is synthesized with a backstepping-based control scheme to accommodate both the avoidance of attitude forbidden zones and disturbance attenuation. Simulation results are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
