Latitude zones more than 4 are expected.4.2.3 Simulation ResultsIn the simulation of the DMT, we achieved almost 100% successful star identicationswithout any misidentication. Table 4.2 shows the results obtained by theDMTwhenthesame simulation data as <strong>for</strong> the PMA were used.Table 4.2: Star identication simulation results using the direct match technique.
