Abstract
An adaptive control scheme for the attitude control of a rigid spacecr aft is derived using a linear parameterization of the equation of moti on. The tracking error is described with the Euler parameter vector. G lobal convergence of the tracking error to zero is shown using passivi ty theory. This allows for the use of time-varying positive-definite f eedback gain matrices, and the results can easily be extended to other passive parameter update laws.
