Design of infinite horizon LQR controller for discrete delay systems in satellite orbit control: A predictive controller and reduction method approach

In the realm of satellite orbit control, powerful controller design plays a pivotal role in minimizing fuel consumption and ensuring orbit stability. This article introduces an advanced approach to the design of a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controller with an infinite horizon, tailored for discrete delay systems. The proposed methodology integrates predictive control with a reduction method, aiming for optimality while addressing performance and system constraints. Formulating the control problem as a quadratic program, the predictive control method generates a sequence of control inputs using a reducing horizon strategy. Stability analysis, employing Lyapunov-Krasovsky functions and linear matrix inequalities, yields delay-independent conditions for exponential convergence. A numerical example showcases the controller's effectiveness in maintaining orbit and reducing fuel consumption, underlining its capacity to achieve control objectives despite uncertainties and time delays. This research contributes to robust control strategies in satellite orbit systems, enhancing control performance and operational efficiency.
