Effects of the LGS geometry on the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor and the Pyramid wavefront sensor
International audienceIn this work we study the effects of the laser guide star (LGS) on the measurements of both the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWFS) and the Pyramid wavefront sensor (PWFS).

The star spot centroid localization accuracy of the star tracker directly determines the accuracy of satellite attitude control. To address the degradation of attitude determination accuracy during high-acceleration maneuvers, this study establishes a star spot acceleration motion model in the sensor coordinate system.

Fast and Robust pointing and tracking using a second-generation star tracker.
Second generation star trackers work by taking wide-angle optical pictures of star fields, correlating the image against a star catalogue in ROM, centroiding many stars to derive an accurate position and orientation.

A Highly Efficient Attitude Estimation Algorithm for Star Trackers Based on Optimal Image Matching
This paper presents a novel attitude estimation algorithm for spacecraft using a star tracker. The algorithm is based on an efficient approach to match the stars of two images optimally on top of each other, hence the name of the algorithm: AIM (Attitude
