  1. 21. Space Surveillance and Tracking Tool: Implementation and Test of New Methods​

    University essay from KTH/Rymdteknik

    Author : Giovanni Cirillo; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In March 2019 the number of artificial objects bigger than 1 mm in orbit around the Earth is estimated to be more than 170 millions. Only a small fraction of them (0.03%) is catalogued. An impact of an operational satellite with one of these debris can damage the satellite and undermine its mission. READ MORE

  3. 22. Analysis of the ion Composition in the Io Plasma Torus From Observations by the New Horizons Mission

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jacob Cederlund; Carmen Dahlin; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The object of this project is to analyse data from the plasma torus around Jupiter. The material in the plasma supplied by Jupiter’s moon Io is composed mostly of the elements oxygen and sulphur at different ionisation states and the torus has a changing environment. READ MORE

    Keywords : Compressed sensing; Compressive sensing; CS; Compressive imaging; compressed imaging; CI; SPC; Single pixel camera; single pixel imaging; SWIR; Short-wavelength infrared; IR; infrared; Natural Scenes; DMD; Digital micromirror device; FOI;

    Abstract : Photos captured in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) spectrum are interesting in military applications because they are independent of what time of day the pic- ture is captured because the sun, moon, stars and night glow illuminate the earth with short-wave infrared radiation constantly. A major problem with today’s SWIR cameras is that they are very expensive to produce and hence not broadly available either within the military or to civilians. READ MORE
