Abstract

We consider a PDE-ODE model of a satellite and robust output regulation of the corresponding model. The satellite is composed of two flexible solar panels and a rigid center body. Exponential stability of the model is proved using passivity and resolvent estimates in the port-Hamiltonian framework. In addition, we construct a simple low-gain controller for robust output regulation of the satellite model.
