Notice: As of 2014 and for the forthcoming years, the publication frequency/periodicity of WSEAS Journals is adapted to the 'continuously updated' model. What this means is that instead of being separated into issues, new papers will be added on a continuous basis, allowing a more regular flow and shorter publication times. The papers will appear in reverse order, therefore the most recent one will be on top.

ABSTRACT: Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and unscented Kalman filter (UKF) are interlaced using the Euler angles as the attitude parameter in order to estimate the satellite s angular motion parameters about center of mass. Magnetometer and sun sensor are used as the vector measurements for SVD in addition to the angular ate measurements from rate gyro for UKF; therefore, the output of the SVD shaped the nontraditional approach as SVD aided UKF algorithm using the linear measurements.

KEYWORDS: Satellite attitude estimation, magnetometer, sun sensor, rate gyro, unscended Kalman filter, angular velocity, nontraditional approach.
