Abstract;In the space mission such as the Earth observing, communication, exploration of the deep space, it is important to make the attitude determination system more accurate and functional by using STT(Star Tracker). High functionality of the star identification technique which is necessary when we use STT is indispensable to autonomous operation. This paper presents the pattern matching methods as star identification without a priori attitude information. (author abst.)
