This paper studies the issue of learning radial basis function neural network (RBFNN)-based robust reconfigurable fault-tolerant configuration control for spacecraft formation flying (SFF) systems subject to thruster faults and space perturbations. To robustly reconstruct thruster faults, a novel learning RBFNN estimator is innovatively explored, in which the P-type iterative learning algorithm is utilized to online update the weight matrix of the RBFNN model and the H∞ control technique is adopted to attenuate the effect of space perturbations. Further, a learning RBFNN output-feedback fault-tolerant control (FTC) method is developed for spacecraft formation configuration maintenance with high accuracy, and the learning RBFNN algorithm is used to update and compensate the synthesized perturbation. Finally, a numerical example is simulated to verify the presented learning RBFNN-based spacecraft formation FTC approach is feasible and superior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper addresses the robust attitude synchronization issue in a multi-spacecraft formation system subjected to limited communication, space disturbances, modeling uncertainties, and actuator faults. To accommodate limited inter-spacecraft communication, a dynamic event-triggered mechanism is designed to reduce the communication trigger frequency by dynamically adjusting the trigger threshold. Moreover, an event-based distributed self-learning neural-network control (SLN2C) law is developed to guarantee robust attitude synchronization during multi-spacecraft formation. In the SLN2C scheme, a learning radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) model is proposed to online approximate and compensate for lumped disturbances, in which an iterative learning algorithm with a variable learning intensity is adopted to update the weight matrix of the RBFNN model. Compared with the traditional fixed learning intensity, a variable one can reduce initial oscillation and weaken the saturation response. Numerical simulations and comparisons are performed to illustrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed event-based spacecraft attitude synchronization control method.
