A CCD photometric camera for satellite observation
Abstract
A CCD camera for photometric measurement of satellites has been built, tested, and has been integrated into the Experimental Test System (ETS). This report describes the camera, the computer system and programs used to collect data, the camera's sensitivity parameters, the sensitivity of the camera on the ETS 31-inch Telescope, and its projected sensitivity on Ground-Based Electro-Optical Deep Space Surveillance System (GEODSS) main telescope.
