1. Initial Orbit Determination of Resident Space Objects From A Passive Optical Imaging System: : Application to Space Situational Awareness
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : The probability of satellite collisions and disintegrations cluttering the near-Earth orbital environmentis ever-growing. This is especially true for the congested Low Earth Orbit (LEO) regime; once a critical density of objects is reached, a collisional cascading is projected to generate runaway growth of theorbital population.

2. Investigations of the Transient Luminous Events with the small satellites, balloons and ground-based instruments
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : The lightning is the natural source of electromagnetic radiation. It is an atmospheric electrical discharge. However, since recent times, it was discovered that there are other types of lightning besides those that are visible to the naked eye. They are called TLEs (Transient Luminous Event) and take place above the clouds during thunderstorms. READ MORE

3. Feasibility study of initial orbit determination with open astronomical data
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : In this report I present a feasibility study of using open astronomical data to make Initial Orbit Determination (IOD) for Resident Space Objects (RSO) appearing as streaks in telescope images. The purpose is to contribute to Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) for maintaining Space Situation Awareness (SSA). READ MORE

4. Forward Modelling of Ground Based SST Telescope Images
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Space debris is becoming an increased threat to the future use of space orbits. In order to counteract this threat, the field of Space Situational Awareness (SSA), and the sub-field Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST), have been developed to gather knowledge about the space debris and satellites surrounding Earth.

5. Simulation of Precise Automatic Radio Frequency GroundStation Tracking For S-Band Satellites
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : Satellites are often known for possessing invariable motion causing its apparent position to drift in the sky from the perspective of a ground station. If these irregular drifts are not compensated, the performance of the communication link would be greatly affected. Hence, the satellite motion has to be tracked by the ground station antenna.
