dc.description.abstractThe functional and non-functional satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) are imaged without motion blur. The images are post-processed using a novel algorithm to obtain the length, width, and orientation of the major axis of the satellites. The estimated length and width of the satellites agree with the true dimension and the estimated orientation of non-functional satellites changes rapidly whereas the orientation of the functional satellite is relatively stable in each frame. Hence, this novel image processing algorithm is effective in estimating the dimension of asymmetric objects (satellites and debris) and characterise the nonfunctional satellites in LEO.en
