Space debris positioning technology based on observation by multiple optical platforms

Abstract

In this paper, a multi-optical platform target recognition theory based on geocentric observation is proposed by studying the space debris observation model based on multiple optical platforms, and the recognition rate is over 85%. The Gaussian minimum mean square error differential correction algorithm is used to realize the target location by multiple optical observations, and the positioning accuracy reaches 14m, and the positioning accuracy tends to the accuracy of the satellite itself. It can get rid of the disadvantage that the space debris cannot be located by single optical platform, and retain its important advantages such as high accuracy and low power consumption. which lays a solid foundation for the later debris orbit determination.
