Attitude determination of a three-axis stabilized spacecraft using star sensors
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the application of a six-state discrete Kalman filter for estimates of angular rates based solely on star sensor data. The satellite is in a Molnyia orbit where orbital angular velocity and orbital angular acceleration are predetermined and stored in the...
