Abstract:
A satellite imaging system includes a camera with a pixel shifting mechanism, thermally stable imaging payload, and high-stability attitude determination and control system (ADCS) to improve image resolution. To address the overall stabilization requirement, the satellite incorporates a number of design elements that, in combination, provide the stable result required for good imaging.
