In this paper, a robust actuator fault diagnosis scheme is investigated for satellite attitude control systems subject to model uncertainties, space disturbance torques and gyro drifts. A nonlinear unknown input observer is designed to detect the occurrence of any actuator fault. Subsequently, a bank of adaptive unknown input observers activated by the detection results are designed to isolate which actuator is faulty and then estimate of the fault parameter. Fault isolation is achieved based on the well known generalized observer strategy. The simulation on a closed-loop satellite control system with time-varying or constant actuator faults in the form of additive and multiplicative unknown dynamics demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed robust fault diagnosis strategy.
