An optical survey is the main technique for detecting space debris. Due to the specific characteristics of observation, the pointing errors and tracking errors of the telescope as well as image degradation may be significant, which make it difficult for astrometric calibration. Here we present an improved method that corrects the pointing and tracking errors, and measures the image position precisely. The pipeline is tested on a number of CCD images obtained from a 1-m telescope administered by Xinjiang Astronomical Observatory while observing a GPS satellite. The results show that the position measurement error of the background stars is around 0.1 pixel, while the time cost for a single frame is about 7.5 s; hence the reliability and accuracy of our method are demonstrated. In addition, our method shows a versatile and feasible way to perform space debris observation utilizing non-dedicated telescopes, which means more sensors could be involved and the ability to perform surveys could be improved. 相似文献

A method for detecting space debris images in the light of apriori information is proposed. As far as this method is concerned, a range gate in the neighborhood of the debris star image in the whole image is set through apriori information, and the local background threshold value within the range gate is calculated, in order to identify the object in the help of some criteria. Then, the moment method is utilized to calculate the deviation of the debris barycenter with respect to the gate center, and the position of the debris barycenter on the whole image is calculated through a linear translation. Experiments show that the method has a low complexity, good real-time performance, and the convenience of realization, it can be used to detect space debris effciently and accurately and to determine the position of the debris barycenter more precisely. 相似文献

Two parameters are developed to analyze the CCD images from ground-based and/or space telescopes. The first parameter, deduced from the intensity profile of the object sharp, is useful to resolve stars and hot pixels. The second parameter shape distinguishes the stars from the background cosmic-ray events using geometric characteristics defined by its shapes. The parameters are applied to a simulated OMC/INTEGRAL image and a HST image. 相似文献

Atmospheric turbulence severely restricts the spatial resolution of astronomical images obtained by a large ground-based telescope. In order to reduce effectively this effect, we propose a method of blind deconvolution, with a bandwidth constraint determined by the parameters of the telescope's optical system based on the principle of maximum likelihood estimation, in which the convolution error function is minimized by using the conjugate gradient algorithm. A relation between the parameters of the telescope optical system and the image's frequency-domain bandwidth is established, and the speed of convergence of the algorithm is improved by using the positivity constraint on the variables and the limited-bandwidth constraint on the point spread function. To avoid the effective Fourier frequencies exceed the cut-off frequency, it is required that each single image element (e.g., the pixel in the CCD imaging) in the sampling focal plane should be smaller than one fourth of the diameter of the diffraction spot. In the algorithm, no object-centered constraint was used, so the proposed method is suitable for the image restoration of a whole field of objects. By the computer simulation and by the restoration of an actually-observed image of α Piscium, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated. 相似文献

Although tracking with a passive optical telescope is a powerful technique for space debris observation, it is limited by its sensitivity to dynamic background noise. Traditionally, in the field of astronomy, static background subtraction based on a median image technique has been used to extract moving space objects prior to the tracking operation, as this is computationally efficient. The main disadvantage of this technique is that it is not robust to variable illumination conditions. In this article,we propose an approach for tracking small and dim space debris in the context of a dynamic background via one of the optical telescopes that is part of the space surveillance network project, named the AsiaPacific ground-based Optical Space Observation System or APOSOS. The approach combines a fuzzy running Gaussian average for robust moving-object extraction with dim-target tracking using a particlefilter-based track-before-detect method. The performance of the proposed algorithm is experimentally evaluated, and the results show that the scheme achieves a satisfactory level of accuracy for space debris tracking. 相似文献

The Solar X-ray Imager (SXI) was launched on 23 July 2001 on NOAAs GOES-12 satellite and completed post-launch testing on 20 December 2001. It was brought into operations on 21 January 2003. This paper documents SXI performance and calibrations prior to an instrument degradation that occurred on 5 November 2003 and thus covers more than 420000 soft X-ray images of the Sun. This paper details component-level as well as full-system calibrations characterizing the spatial and spectral performance of the instrument, including the grazing-incidence mirror, filters, and the properties of the MCP-intensified CCD detector system. Routine image corrections are also described. These include background (dark current) subtraction, flat-fielding, off-band light-leak correction, and image pointing and timing considerations. In addition, a signal-to-noise analysis is presented. The information contained in this study is intended to enable researchers to conduct quantitative analysis of GOES-12 SXI images. 相似文献

Modern star trackers are based on photodetector arrays such as CCD or CMOS arrays. The accuracy of commercially available devices is ~1–3 arcseconds. However, the development of the space industry calls for higher orientation accuracies, which are needed in laser space communications, monitoring of near-Earth space and space debris, high-precision global mapping, and remote sensing of the Earth. The problems associated with enhancing the accuracy of modern star trackers are discussed. 相似文献

Terrain classification is one of the critical steps used in lunar geomorphologic analysis and landing site selection. Most of the published works have focused on a Digital Elevation Model(DEM) to distinguish different regions of lunar terrain.This paper presents an algorithm that can be applied to lunar CCD images by blocking and clustering according to image features, which can accurately distinguish between lunar highland and lunar mare. The new algorithm, compared with the traditional algorithm, can improve classification accuracy. The new algorithm incorporates two new features and one Tamura texture feature. The new features are generating an enhanced image histogram and modeling the properties of light reflection, which can represent the geological characteristics based on CCD gray level images. These features are applied to identify texture in order to perform image clustering and segmentation by a weighted Euclidean distance to distinguish between lunar mare and lunar highlands.The new algorithm has been tested on Chang'e-1 CCD data and the testing result has been compared with geological data published by the U.S. Geological Survey. The result has shown that the algorithm can effectively distinguish the lunar mare from highlands in CCD images. The overall accuracy of the proposed algorithm is satisfactory, and the Kappa coefficient is 0.802, which is higher than the result of combining the DEM with CCD images. 相似文献

Accurate heliographic coordinates of objects on the Sun have to be known in several fields of solar physics. One of the factors
that affect the accuracy of the measurements of the heliographic coordinates is the accuracy of the orientation of a solar
image. In this paper the well-known drift method for determining the orientation of the solar image is applied to data taken
with a solar telescope equipped with a CCD camera. The factors that influence the accuracy of the method are systematically
discussed, and the necessary corrections are determined. These factors are as follows: the trajectory of the center of the
solar disk on the CCD with the telescope drive turned off, the astronomical refraction, the change of the declination of the
Sun, and the optical distortion of the telescope. The method can be used on any solar telescope that is equipped with a CCD
camera and is capable of taking solar full-disk images. As an example to illustrate the method and its application, the orientation
of solar images taken with the Gyula heliograph is determined. As a byproduct, a new method to determine the optical distortion
of a solar telescope is proposed. 相似文献

This paper presents new, detailed analyses of small-scale morphologic and topographic characteristics of martian debris aprons that support Viking-based interpretations of debris aprons as ice-rich flow features derived from local uplands. Fifty-four debris apron complexes in the eastern Hellas region of Mars were examined using Mars Global Surveyor data sets, including Mars Orbiter Camera images and Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter topographic profiles. Consistent patterns in a suite of small-scale surface textures and geomorphic features observed throughout the population reflect a history of viscous flow and surface degradation through wind ablation and loss of contained ice. A wide variety of shapes seen in topographic profile reveal variations in distribution of contained ice and different stages of apron development and degradation. The results of this study provide new evidence consistent with multiple models of apron formation, including rock glacier, debris-covered glacier, and ice-rich landslide models. Typical eastern Hellas debris aprons formed from a series of large-scale events, emplacing debris that was enriched initially or later by ground ice, complemented by small-scale mass wasting of multiple styles and postemplacement flow of apron masses. 相似文献

In March 2019 the first dedicated of optical observation of space debris and artificial satellites (Optical Satellites Tracking Station (OSTS)) in Egypt has been performed by National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics (NRIAG) at Kottamia Observatory. The 0.28 m Telescope is used for tracking and surveying debris and operational satellites at Low Earth Orbit (LEO), High ellipse orbit (HEO) and the Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO). OSTS has also collaborated with International Scientific Optical Network (ISON) for optical observation. The necessary programs to control the telescope, camera and monitoring process are configured. Coordinate corrected metric data is provided with the time information. The system has validated and calibrated processing. The first results of the observations with image processing using Apex-2 software are presented. The optical observations using OSTS are being used to help characterize the debris environment in LEO, HEO and GEO to assist in the modeling projections for space debris database, real population and distribution, detection and orbital determination, and conjunction analysis between operational satellites and/or dangers debris. 相似文献
