MATLAB simulation of satellite pitch axis dynamics with PID control implementation.
Models satellite attitude control using fundamental orbital mechanics and control theory. Demonstrates pitch axis stabilization through Euler integration and torque-based control.
- 3-DOF satellite dynamics modeling
- PID controller for attitude stabilization
- MATLAB code generation to C (embedded systems deployment)
- Euler integration for real-time simulation
