<strong>BOKZ</strong> <strong>Star</strong> <strong>Instrument</strong> <strong>Family</strong><br />

In-orbit processing results<br />

The operating star trackers – <strong>BOKZ</strong> and <strong>BOKZ</strong>-M – can be considered<br />

prototypes for the instruments should which provide for controlling s/c<br />

angular motion parameters in nominal operation conditions without any<br />

support by other systems of the s/c housekeeping system.<br />

This operation mode was proved on the Yamal-200, Cosmos-2410,<br />

Cosmos-2420 and Resurs-DK spacecraft.<br />

Non-nominal operation conditions are as follows:<br />

– S/c angular velocity exceeds the value admissible<br />

for certain star instrument modification.<br />

– There are bright natural objects (the Sun, the Earth and the Moon)<br />

within the instrument's field of view.<br />

– There are artificial objects (space debris)<br />

within the instrument's field of view.
