Abstract: A autonomous real-time determination of position for spacecraft by using the extended kalman filtering is put foward.The elevation angular of star is observed by star sensor and horizontal instrument.The effect on the number of sighting star,the precision of star sensor and the change of sampling period to the error determination is analyzed and compared.
