Abstract
Systems and techniques for the optimized matched filter tracking of space objects are provided. In one aspect, a method of detecting faint objects includes receiving a plurality of telescope images from a telescope imaging system and performing a plurality of computational calculations on the telescope images using a plurality of search parameters to identify one or more objects moving through the telescope images. The number of the computational calculations is reduced by a priori relatively restricting a parameter space of the computational calculations.
