Phase Error Modeling and Its Impact on Precise Orbit Determination of GRACE Satellites
Limiting factors for the precise orbit determination POD of low-earth orbit LEO satellite using dual-frequency GPS are nowadays mainly encountered with the in-flight phase error modeling. The phase error is modeled as a systematic and a random component each depending on the direction of GPS signal reception. The systematic part and standard deviation of random part in phase error model are, re...
متن کاملPrecise Orbit Determination for Low Earth Orbit Satellites
The precise orbit determination problem is to accurately determine the position and velocity vectors of an orbiting satellite. In this paper we review the general contents of the orbit determination process, with particular emphasis on Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. The different orbit determination approaches and the different force models contained within are briefly discussed. The two mai...
متن کاملEnvisat Precise Orbit Determination
The Navigation Office at ESOC has been closely involved in all aspects of the Precise Orbit Determination (POD) of Envisat throughout the mission lifetime. These activities started shortly after launch through membership of the Orbit Validation Team (OVT). During this time ESOC was involved in both calibration and validation of the DORIS doppler data, the SLR data and the different POD solution...
متن کاملPrecise Orbit Determination of BeiDou Satellites with Contributions from Chinese National Continuous Operating Reference Stations
The precise orbit determination (POD) for BeiDou satellites is usually limited by the insufficient quantity and poor distribution of ground tracking stations. To cope with this problem, this study used the GPS and BeiDou joint POD method based on Chinese national continuous operating reference stations (CNCORS) and IGS/MGEX stations. The results show that the 3D RMS of the differences of overla...
متن کاملAbsolute Orbit and Gravity Determination using Relative Position Measurements Between Two Satellites
A method has been developed to use a time series of relative position measurements to estimate the orbits of two satellites along with corrections to the gravity model of the celestial body about which they orbit. This system provides autonomy or near autonomy and could be used for gravity recovery at the Moon or a planet. This system eliminates the need for a third spacecraft that maintains a ...
