1. A satellite system comprising:
a first angle sensor comprising a first measurement bandwidth;
a first filter connected to the first sensor;
a second angle sensor comprising a second measurement bandwidth;
a second filter connected to the second sensor;
a third filter connected to the first filter and the second filter, the third filter configured to:
receive a first signal from the first filter comprising a first bandwidth range;
receive a second signal from the second filter comprising a second bandwidth range;
blend the first signal and the second signal into a third signal; and
