ADCS - Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control

Michael Paluszek is the President of Princeton Satellite Systems, Inc. (PSS). He received a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1976. He received a Master's and Masters and an Engineer's degree from MIT in Aeronautics and Astronautics in 1979. In 1992, Mr. Paluszek founded PSS in Plainsboro, New Jersey, to provide aerospace design services. He designed the control system and simulations for the Indostar-1 geosynchronous communications satellite, which launched in 1997, as well as a Mars Ascent Vehicle for a NASA RFP. He also designed a two-stage-to-orbit vehicle which uses a turbofan in the first stage for low-Mach numbers, and a ramjet with a hydrogen-fueled combustor for high-Mach flight. His current projects include a waverider hypersonic small package delivery aircraft and the Starfire fusion reactor for energy generation and space propulsion. Before founding PSS, Mr. Paluszek was an engineer at GE Astro Space in East Windsor, NJ. At GE, he designed the Global Geospace Sciences Polar despun platform control system and led the design of the GPS IIR attitude control system, the Inmarsat-3 attitude control systems, and the Mars Observer Delta-V control system. Mr. Paluszek flew communication satellites on over twelve satellite launches, including the GSTAR III recovery, the first transfer of a satellite to an operational orbit using electric thrusters. At Draper Laboratory, Mr. Paluszek worked on Space Shuttle and Space Station programs and on submarine navigation. His Space Station work included designing Control Moment Gyro-based attitude-control systems. He authored ``ADCS: Attitude Determination and Control Systems,'' published by Elsevier. Mr. Paluszek has also written numerous technical papers and has over a dozen U.S. Patents. He is also the lead co-author of ``MATLAB Recipes,'' ``MATLAB Machine Learning,'' ``MATLAB Machine Learning Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach,'' ``Practical MATLAB Deep Learning Projects,'' and ``MATLAB Recipes Revised Edition,'' published by Apress.
