Abstract

Abstract

Accurate stellar magnitude information is the foundation for conducting navigation star catalog establishment, spacecraft attitude determination, infrared camera calibration, and other work. The existing public star catalogs do not cover all the photometry bands and the bandwidth is generally narrow, making it difficult to find magnitude information that matches the response bands of the mission sensors. A method for calculating the magnitude of sensor response bands based on stellar radiation spectra is proposed. This method utilizes publicly available catalog data information to establish a model for the magnitude difference between the photometry band of the catalog and the sensor response band, and estimates the magnitude difference between the catalog magnitude and the sensor response band. Using the approximate surface temperature of the star calculated by the color index as prior information, the Planck equation is solved in the sensor response band range to calculate the magnitude of the star in the sensor response band. The verification of star catalog data calculation shows that the method has good robustness and adaptability, and the star magnitude derivation accuracy of sensor response band is 0.066 magnitude (1δ), 93.3% of the star estimation error is better than 0.2 magnitude, which can meet the needs of navigation star catalog establishment, spacecraft attitude determination, infrared camera calibration, and other applications.
