A robust attitude controller using Lyapunov redesign technique for spacecraft is proposed. In this controller, qua- ternion feedback is considered to have the attitude maneuver capability very close to the eigen-axis rotation. The controller consists of three parts: the nominal feedback parts which is a PD-type controller for the nominal system without uncertainties, the additional term compensating for the gyroscopic motion, and the third part for ensuring robustness to uncertainties. Lyapunov stability criteria is applied to stability analysis. The performance of the proposed controller is demonstrated via computer simulation.
