Abstract This paper proposes a novel observer-based fault diagnosis method, incorporating an online control allocation scheme, for an orbiting spacecraft in the presence of actuator failures/faults, unexpected disturbances and input saturation. The proposed scheme solves a difficult problem in spacecraft fault tolerant control design by compensating for the loss in effectiveness and time-varying faults using redundant actuators, so that the overall system is stable, despite external disturbances and input saturation. This is accomplished by developing an observer-based fault diagnosis mechanism to reconstruct or estimate the actuator faults/failures. An online control allocation scheme is then used to redistribute the control signals to the healthy actuators in the case of faults/failures, without reconfiguring the controller, so that the control signal distribution is based on the reconstructed actuator effectiveness level. Simulation results using a rigid spacecraft model show good performance in the presence of faults, including total actuator failure scenarios, external disturbances and actuator input saturation, which validates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme.
