Subpixel centroiding algorithm for EMCCD star tracker
SPIE Proceedings, 2008Star tracker is the most precision attitude measurement instrument of spacecrafts, which plays a very important role in attitude measurement and control system. The technology of star tracker based on CCD is very popular. Unfortunately, with a CCD system, a single integration period for the entire sensor is necessitated.

Centroid Locating for Star Image Object by FPGA
Advanced Materials Research, 2011Fast and accurately centroid locating can makes the star image recognition more efficient. The Gauss curve fitting method has higher accurate than traditional centroid locating. The process of centroid locating was investigated with the parallel character of FPGA. First, the star image was divided with the method of average threshold.

Predictive Centroiding for Star Trackers with the Effect of Image Smear
The Journal of the Astronautical Sciences, 2002Star centroiding, locating the star center in a star image frame, is a fundamental process for any star tracker. In this paper, the approximate locations of the stars in successive image frames are predicted using the angular velocity as provided by a rate gyro, then the centroid is updated based upon local image processing. When the rate gyro data are

Optimised centroiding of stars for space applications
2016High precision pointing information is a vital input for the attitude control of space telescopes. This pointing information can be extracted from images by applying centroiding algorithms. Such images may be obtained by dedicated fine guidance sensors or by the science instrument itself.

Effect of sparse recovery on centroid estimation for star image
The 27th Chinese Control and Decision Conference (2015 CCDC), 2015The compressive sensing (CS) theory has represented an attractive perspective that can effectively reduce the sampling rate of star tracker. The star centroid is the key factor relating the star identification and attitude determination. Naturally, there exists a problem that whether the low sampling rate of star tracker can keep the star centroid as ...

Star point centroid algorithm based on background forecast
SPIE Proceedings, 2014The calculation of star point centroid is a key step of improving star tracker measuring error. A star map photoed by APS detector includes several noises which have a great impact on veracity of calculation of star point centroid. Through analysis of characteristic of star map noise, an algorithm of calculation of star point centroid based on ...
