A system model is developed to describe the translational and rotational motion of an active-magnetic-bearing-suspended rigid rotor in a single-gimbal control moment gyro onboard a rigid satellite. This model strictly reflects the motion characteristics of the rotor by considering the dynamic and static imbalance as well as the coupling between the gimbal's and the rotor's motion on a satellite platform. Adaptive auto-centering control is carefully constructed for the rotor with unknown dynamic and static imbalance. The rotor makes its rotation about the principal axis of inertia through identifying the small rotational angles between the geometric axis and the principal axis as well as the displacements from the geometric center to the mass center so as to tune a stabilizing controller composed of a decentralized PD controller with cross-axis proportional gains and high- and low-pass filters. The main disturbance in the wheel spinning can thereby be completely removed and the vibration acting on the satellite attenuated.
