Technology survey of attitude control techniques / prepared by J.A. Harrison, D.A. Staley.Co24-296/1975E-PDF

"This report, prepared under contract for the Department of Communications, presents a review of three axis attitude control systems. The dynamic features of "biased momentum" systems in a number of configurations is discussed at some length. Reaction wheel and zero momentum systems are also considered. A system trade matrix applicable to the Multi-Purpose BUS Satellite shows that development of magnetic bearing wheels and the Micro-Wave Attitude Sensing System could result in a highly competitive attitude control system"--Summary.
