An attitude algorithm based on the band seamless splicing imaging for agile satellite

Abstract:

In order to realize fast maneuvering imaging of the target area with high resolution agile satellite, a new attitude matching algorithm is developed. A strict mosaic imaging model of ray trace and the velocity vector mapping are built according to the strip mosaic imaging principle and the relationship between imaging target and the camera focal plane. The three-axis attitude is deduced based on the principle of optimal tracking of the maneuvering path. Finally, the geometric scaling simulation is carried out through the time delayed and integration (TDI) charge coupled device (CCD) prototype system, satellite attitude control physical simulation platform and the LED earth target simulator. The experimental results show that the algorithm could realize the matching band seamless splicing imaging of the target very well, confirming the correctness of the algorithm.
