A novel star pattern recognition technique for a “Lost-in-space” mode star tracker is presented in this paper. First, the two-dimensional (2-D) vectors connecting the stars are constructed in a rotation-invariant frame. Later, the additive property of 2-D vectors is integrated with the rotation-inva...
