Abstract
At the same orbital height, the radiation environment in SAA region is worse than that in other regions. The main difference is that the region contains high energy particles. CCD star sensors has been developed for use in the attitude determination and control system of satellites, we have processed star sensors flight data and star images acquired by satellites in orbit in an attempt to characterize the performance of CCD star sensors in the abnormal region of the South Atlantic. This paper also introduces the influence of high energy particles exist in the South Atlantic Anomaly on CCD photoelectric imaging detectors. The abnormal phenomena and generation mechanism in the star images has been analyzed. The improvement measures and suggestions for high precision star sensors to avoid or eliminate the influence of SAA has been given finally, which provides reference for improving the performance of star sensors.
