Introduction
q PST purpose
m To allow the measurement of the Lense-Thirring effect
1/2
This measurement is performed as relative measurement between the Precision Star Tracker (PST) giving angles between a guide star, fixed in inertial space and an atomic gyroscope direction, which has an extremely high short time sensitivity for rotation rates (angular rates). The PST is directed to far-distant guide stars, which are not affected by the Lense-Thirring effect. They represent a reference for the measurement and for the motions of the satellite and its control. The second measurement is performed with an Atomic Sagnac Unit (ASU), which measures the rotations of freely falling atoms relative to a series of laser beams, whose orientation is rigidly linked to the PST boresight

m Increasing N means to decrease the centroid error the ratio pixel size / spot size is reduced: a smaller sampling period is obtained and then the rounding effect introduced by the physical pixel dimension is reduced m Increasing N gives rise to greater sensitivity to CCD non-uniformities and
noise
more pixels and then more error contributions (1 for each pixel) new outer pixels having a higher weight in the barycentre computation the centroid computation cannot be considered an average computation because the denominator of is not proportional to the total number of pixels but to the fraction of the star spot energy collected by the tracking matrix

close to the normal to the orbit plane. The maximum angular distance from the normal is represented by the directions forming an angle of 10 deg. to the Earth limb: (30-10) - 9.5 deg. for 1000 Km orbit altitude, inclination 99.5 deg.
