Satellite Angular Velocity Estimation Based on Star Images and Optical Flow Techniques
An optical flow-based technique is proposed to estimate spacecraft angular velocity based on sequences of star-field images. It does not require star identification and can be thus used to also deliver angular rate information when attitude determination is not possible, as during platform de tumbli...
