Patent ID: 11570375

Abstract:
A space debris observation method based on alternating exposure times of a charge coupled device (CCD) camera is provided. The present disclosure controls the CCD camera to acquire consecutively and alternately short-exposure and long-exposure images based on preset exposure times. The present disclosure realizes detection and astronomical positioning of low-orbit, medium-orbit and high-orbit space debris by processing short-exposure images of odd-numbered frames. The present disclosure realizes detection of medium-orbit and high-orbit space debris by processing long-exposure images of even-numbered frames, and realizes astronomical positioning of the medium-orbit and high-orbit space debris detected in a current frame through plate constant model coefficients of adjacent odd-numbered frames. In addition, in a search mode, the present disclosure realizes precise astronomical positioning of low-orbit, medium-orbit and high-orbit space debris through a multi-point adjustment method and the plate constant model coefficients of adjacent odd-numbered frames.
