8. Attitude Determination, Control, and Sensing

8.3 General Design Process

  1. Allocate mission and system requirements:
    1. Evaluate candidate architectures: consider potential ADCS technologies, see Sensing and Actuators.
    2. Establish functional requirements of the ADCS system from payload and spacecraft bus, see Typical Requirements and Design Considerations.
  2. Create dynamic simulation for later verification if ADCS system meets requirements, see Dynamics.
  3. Analyze determination and control algorithms in simulation to verify if ADCS system meets requirements, see Determination and Control Algorithms.
