Multi-Functional Star Tracker - Future Perspectives

Original language description

The paper is focused on a multi-functional wide-field star tracker (WFST) idea description and the description of the current state-of-the-art in this field. The idea comes from the proposal handed in to ESA at the beginning of 2011. Star trackers (STs)usually have more than one object-lens with small Field-of-View. They provide very precise information about the attitude in space according to consecutive evaluation of star positions. Our idea of WFST will combine functions of several instruments together, such those as ST, horizon sensor, and all-sky photometry camera. WFST will use fish-eye lens. In the present technology there is not any similar product on market. Nowadays, spacecrafts have to carry more instruments for mentioned applications, which increases weight and thus decreases weight intended for a payload.
