Abstract(in English) | Optical observation of geosynchronous satellites using portable system was performed in Kashima Space Research Center. This portable system consists of refracting telescope, CCD camera, and equatorial mount. Two refracting telescopes with different aperture, D=10cm and 6cm, were tested. In both cases, geosynchronous satellites were able to be detected. Moreover, right ascension and declination of geosynchronous satellite has been obtained from the pictures taken by 10cm refrator. Their accuracies are order of 1/1000 [deg], which is the same order as that of a large-sized (D=35cm) system. Therefore, the data acquired by the portable system can be applied for orbital determination of geosynchronous satellites. |
