Spacecraft Modeling, Attitude Determination, and Control: Quaternion-Based Approach, Second edition
暫譯: 太空船建模、姿態確定與控制：基於四元數的方法（第二版）

本書討論了太空船的建模、姿態確定、估計和控制。提供了有關旋轉序列和參考框架的背景，接著討論了使用向量測量進行的姿態確定，以及與所使用的驅動器無關的控制設計。

Yaguang Yang holds B.S. (1982) and M.S. (1985) degrees from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China. From 1985 to 1990, he was a lecturer at Zhejiang University in China. In 1996 he received a PhD degree from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland, USA. Since then, he has designed and implemented control systems at UKIRT, CIENA, ITT, and Orbital Sciences Corporation; he has performed theoretical and applied research and published more than 50 papers in controls and optimizations, developed and implemented algorithms in computer codes, and applied to engineering problems, and he has managed nuclear power plant instrument and control research projects at US NRC. He is currently a system engineer with the Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA, where he has worked on several space projects, including The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), Enceladus Life Signatures and Habitability (ELSAH), The Large UV/Optical/IR Surveyor (LUVOIR), and is the Principal Investigator (PI) of an applied research project (Model-based optimal engineering design and its application to the advanced trajectory design problem).

**楊雅光**於1982年和1985年分別獲得中國華中科技大學的學士和碩士學位。1985年至1990年，他在中國浙江大學擔任講師。1996年，他在美國馬里蘭州的馬里蘭大學（University of Maryland, College Park）電機與計算機工程系獲得博士學位。自那時起，他在UKIRT、CIENA、ITT和Orbital Sciences Corporation設計並實施控制系統；他進行了理論和應用研究，並在控制和優化領域發表了超過50篇論文，開發並實施了計算機代碼中的算法，並應用於工程問題，同時他還在美國核能委員會（US NRC）管理核電廠儀器和控制研究項目。目前，他是美國國家航空暨太空總署（NASA）戈達德太空飛行中心的系統工程師，參與了多個太空項目，包括激光干涉儀太空天線（LISA）、恩克拉多斯生命跡象與宜居性（ELSAH）、大型紫外線/光學/紅外線調查器（LUVOIR），並擔任一個應用研究項目的首席研究員（Model-based optimal engineering design and its application to the advanced trajectory design problem）。
