【 摘 要 】

The article presents an algorithm for digital image processing of astronomical objects in order to effectively determine the position of these objects. The proposed method has been optimized due to its effectiveness of removing noise and distortion caused by atmospheric turbulence and imperfections in long exposure photography of astronomical objects. This solution is ready for implementation in a system for automatic identification of stars in the recorded images. Such a system is designed for GoTo circuits at telescope’s drives, which can automatically point a telescope to astronomical objects. The method was verified by simulation in MATLAB program on real images of astronomical objects.
