In this paper, an adaptive controller based on decentralized minimal control synthesis is designed n order to control an attitude of specific remote sensing satellite. The main design purposes are performing spinning, three axis and large angle maneuver as well as achieving a stable system and tracking the reference attitude trajectory in the presence of uncertainties. In the design process, the effects of internal and external disturbances, nonlinearities in the satellite dynamic and the accurate model of actuators are regarded. Four reaction wheels with pyramidal structure are modeled as the actuators to accomplish an attitude maneuver. So the exact reaction wheels’ model with regarding the maximum voltage, current, allowable angular velocities and power of wheels is developed. The simulation results show an acceptable performance of controller in the presence of exacts actuators’ model, external and internal disturbances and uncertainties in the satellite parameters.
