STELLAR ATMOSPHERIC REFRACTION MEASUREMENT CORRECTION METHOD BASED ON COLLINEARITY OF REFRACTION SURFACES

A stellar atmospheric refraction measurement correction method based on collinearity of refraction surfaces, comprising: performing star identification on the basis of observed star vectors in a star sensor and the reference star catalog, to obtain matching relationships between observed stars and reference stars; converting reference star vectors corresponding to the observed stars to a geographic coordinate system before entering the atmosphere to obtain zenith distances and azimuth angles of incident stellar; on the basis of a principle of collinearity of refraction surfaces, performing optimal solving according to imaging coordinates of observation stars, to obtain the optimal position coordinates of the zenith direction on an imaging surface of the star sensor; according to the optimal zenith direction, performing atmospheric refraction correction on all the recognized observed stars by means of the trigonometric cosine formula to obtain corrected star coordinates; and performing optimal solving to obtain the attitude of the star sensor in the geographic coordinate system.
