Magnetorquers and reaction wheels are the important control actuators for modem small satellites. A combined control method is proposed on the bases of both reaction wheels and magnetorquers to be used in the case of reaction wheel failed. A combined control scheme is firstly provided when control allocation is used, and then control techniques are developed to automatically reistribute the required control torque among residual reaction wheels and magnetorquers. Numerical simulations demonstrate the proposed technique can dynamically achieve failure isolation and system reconfiguration, and can also finish the high accuracy attitude control task of small satellite. It also prolongs life of space task. Another point is its excellent robustness, simple design, and real time calculation on-board.
