A Variable Structure Control (VSC) approach is presented for multi-axial spacecraft attitude maneuvers. Nonlinear sliding surfaces are proposed which result in asymptotically stable, ideal linear decoupled sliding motions of Cayley-Rodrigues attitude parameters, as well as of angular velocities. The resulting control laws are interpreted as more robust and more easily implemented versions of those previously obtained by feedback linearization.
