An Evaluation of Low-Cost Vision Processors for Efficient Star Identification [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Star trackers are navigation sensors that are used for attitude determination of a satellite relative to certain stars. A star tracker is required to be accurate and also consume as little power as possible in order to be used in small satellites.

A robust star identification algorithm with star shortlisting [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Space Research, 2018
Abstract A star tracker provides the most accurate attitude solution in terms of arc seconds compared to the other existing attitude sensors. When no prior attitude information is available, it operates in “Lost-In-Space (LIS)” mode. Star pattern recognition, also known as star identification algorithm, forms the most crucial part of a star tracker ...

A Fast Star Identification Algorithm of Star Sensors in the LIS Mode

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
In the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) area, due to the influence of transient noise caused by space radiation, a star sensor can easily stay in the lost-in-space (LIS) mode for a long time.
