Abstract

See full text

For controlling nutation of a three-axis stabilized satellite, the angular speed of a solar panel carried by the satellite is selectively and temporarily varied about an average value for modifying the inertia cross-product thereof and generating an angular momentum transverse to the angular momentum present in said body with a phase with respect to the nutation motion which tends to decrease the amplitude of the nutation motion.
