A sensor using an electrostatic storage camera is studied for use in an autonomous space surveillance system. The Teal Amber I target and background parameters and search fan are used to characterize the system sensitivity and data acquisition method. A detailed telescope and mount analysis and camera design analysis are performed based on both panoramic and step-and-stare scan modes. A conceptual design of a data processing system using starfield cancellation followed by streak detection is analyzed. The system survivability and reliability are discussed. A cost-effective laboratory demonstration system is presented. The recommended space surveillance system is described and performance predictions are made based on the Teal Amber target parameters.
