Star centroiding error compensation for intensified star sensors

open access: yesOptics Express, 2016
A star sensor provides high-precision attitude information by capturing a stellar image; however, the traditional star sensor has poor dynamic performance, which is attributed to its low sensitivity. Regarding the intensified star sensor, the image intensifier is utilized to improve the sensitivity, thereby further improving the dynamic performance of ...

Blurred Star Image Processing for Star Sensors under Dynamic Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2012
The precision of star point location is significant to identify the star map and to acquire the aircraft attitude for star sensors. Under dynamic conditions, star images are not only corrupted by various noises, but also blurred due to the angular rate of the star sensor.
