Real-Time Hardware-in-the-Loop Hand-Off from a Finder Scope to a Larger Telescope

2017-11 , Aguilar-Marsillach, Daniel , Virani, Shahzad , Holzinger, Marcus J.

Electro-optical sensors play an increasingly important role in the SSA domain for tracking satellites and debris objects. Such sensors provide data that complement other methods, like radar based sensing, by providing a higher angular resolution, and thus improving the estimation of an object’s orbit, attitude and physical properties. The acquisition of such data is invaluable for obtaining more accurate collision risk assessments and formulating improved debris mitigation efforts. The Georgia Tech - Space Object Research Telescope aims to improve detection and tracking for agile Raven-class telescopes with narrow fields of view and high angular resolutions. A secondary imaging system was used to correct the Georgia Tech - Space Object Research Telescope’s pointing errors for tracking objects at high angular rates using a closed-loop controller. This paper will focus on the development and results of a real-time hardware-in-the-loop hand-off from a finder scope to a larger telescope.
