Laboratory experiments of resident space object capture by a spacecraft–manipulator system [PDF]

open access: yesAerospace Science and Technology, 2017
Abstract A set of laboratory experiments are conducted to demonstrate the autonomous capture of a simulated resident space object by a simulated spacecraft equipped with a robotic manipulator. A planar air-bearing test bed provides a quasi-weightless and drag-free dynamic environment on a plane.

On-Orbit Recognition of Resident Space Objects by Using Star Trackers

Acta Astronautica, 2020
Abstract The paper focuses on the opportunity to use star sensors to help space situational awareness and space surveillance. Catalogs of orbiting satellites around Earth are usually established on ground-based measurements that rely on optical or radar data provided by instruments on Earth.

Adaptive Estimation Techniques for Resident Space Object Characterization

open access: yes, 2016
This thesis investigates using adaptive estimation techniques to determine unknown model parameters such as size and surface material reflectivity, while estimating position, velocity, attitude, and attitude rates of a resident space object.

Inverse Radon Transform Scaling via Spin Rate Estimation for Resident Space Object Size Assessment

open access: yesIET Radar, Sonar and Navigation, 2019
The population of resident space objects (RSOs) has increased drastically during the past years. These objects became a great threat for active satellites.

Resident space objects detection and tracking based on artificial intelligence

open access: yes, 2022
Resident Space Objects (RSOs) detection and tracking are challenging problems in the framework of Space Situational Awareness (SSA). The growing number of in orbit platforms and the incoming era of mega constellations is increasing both active and passive traffic in the near Earth segment.

Physics and Human-Based Information Fusion for Improved Resident Space Object Tracking

open access: yesAdvances in Space Research, 2018
Maintaining a catalog of Resident Space Objects (RSOs) can be cast in a typical Bayesian multi-object estimation problem, where the various sources of uncertainty in the problem – the orbital mechanics, the kinematic states of the identified objects, the

Multi-Bistatic Radar for Resident Space Objects Feature Estimation

2018 19th International Radar Symposium (IRS), 2018
The amount of space debris orbiting the Earth has seen a dramatic grow through the recent years. Its rising population increases the potential danger to space missions. At present time, it is urgent to gain as much information as possible in order to characterize this environment.
