dc.description.abstract The Prox-1 mission is Georgia Institute of Technology’s entry to the University Nanosat Program’s competition cycle. Since the goal of the program is to design a complete satellite that will function on orbit, it must have fully designed and space capable subsystems. This paper details the design of the Attitude Determination and Control Subsystem. First, the requirements for the subsystem are derived from the mission requirements, and then trades are presented to find which architecture is the best selection to meet these requirements. Then the trades for specific hardware selections are done, followed by the hardware budgets and tests. Once the hardware is chosen, the algorithms can be explored and described. A rough analysis of detumble length is done, followed be a detailed derivation and explanation of the coarse attitude control system. A filter for attitude determination is explained, followed by a discussion of the fine attitude determination and control system and then the flight rules for the system. Thus, the design of the system done to date is presented in this paper
