The invention concerns the identification of stars. It consists in selecting "detected stars" among the sensed stars; coupling the detected stars; selecting all or part of the doublets of the catalogue which are most likely to have been present in the visual field of the sensor, said likely doublets and their stars constituting a set D; pairing stars of D with detected stars, and supplying all or part of the paired couples of stars to the processing system. Said method is characterised in that it comprises at least the consolidating classification of the set D stars and at least a step using this classification for reducing the number of stars to be paired and/or for carrying out the pairing, and/or for selecting the paired couples. The invention is applicable in particular for determining the attitude of an aircraft or submarine.

L'invention concerne la reconnaissance d'étoiles. On sélectionne des "étoiles détectées" parmi des étoiles captées; on accouple deux à deux les étoiles détectées; on sélectionne tout ou partie des doublets du catalogue qui ont une bonne chance d'avoir été présents dans le champ de vue du senseur, lesquels doublets possibles et leurs étoiles constituant un ensemble D; on apparie des étoiles de D avec des étoiles détectées, et on fournit tout ou partie des couples d'étoiles appariées, au système de traitement, ce procédé comprenant le regroupement des étoiles de l'ensemble D en classes et au moins une étape utilisant cette mise en classe pour diminuer le nombre d'étoiles à apparier et/ou pour réaliser les appariements, et/ou pour sélectionner les couples appariés. L'invention s'applique notamment à la détermination de l'attitude d'un aéronef ou d'un sous-marin.
