Importance of adding perturbations in the optimized boundary value initial orbit determination using shooting method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Space debris is becoming a major threat for functionalspacecraft. Since, out of thousands of tracked objects inthe Earth’s orbits, only a small percentage correspondsto the operational satellites.

Research on Sliding-Window Batch Processing Orbit Determination Algorithm for Satellite-to-Satellite Tracking

open access: yesAerospace
In response to the increasing demand for high-precision navigation of satellites operating in the cislunar space, this study introduces an onboard orbit determination algorithm considering both convergence and computational efficiency, referred to as the

On initial orbit determination

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1984
The classical methods of initial orbit determination are brought together within a larger viewpoint. This new synthesis stresses that all such techniques follow one of three approaches. Either they seek to compute the orbital element set, or its equivalent, by attacking the differential equations of motion (Laplace), the first integrals of the ...

Shooting method to allow for perturbations in the optimized boundary value initial orbit determination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Space debris poses threats to functional spacecraft around the Earth due to the possibility of collisions in orbit. The debris object population needs to be cataloged to monitor the space environment.

Angles-Only Initial Orbit Determination of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellites Using Real Observational Data

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
The Optical Wide-field patroL-Network (OWL-Net) is a Korean optical space surveillance system used to track and monitor objects in space. In this study, the characteristics of four Initial Orbit Determination (IOD) methods were analyzed using artificial ...

Initial Orbit Determination for Distant Objects

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2004
Initial orbit determination for distant objects can be made a simple linear problem with explicit solutions. This is similar to stellar parallax work, with very difficult observations but simple computations. A very simple procedure for computing ephemerides for distant objects is proposed.

Validation of GPS Based Precise Orbits Using SLR Observations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2009
In this study, the YLPODS (Yonsei Laser-ranging Precision Orbit Determination System) is developed for POD using SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging) NP (Normal Point) observations. The performance of YLPODS is tested using SLR NP observations of TOPEX/POSEIDON

Simulation of the Use of Variance Component Estimation in Relative Weighting of Inter-Satellite Links and GNSS Measurements

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Inter-satellite links (ISLs) can improve the performance of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) in terms of precise orbit determination, communication, and data-exchange capabilities.

Best hypotheses search on iso-energy-grid for initial orbit determination and track association [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Debris populating the geostationary orbit is mainly observed by ground-based optical telescopes. Short measurement arcs, known as tracklets, provide line-of-sight information along with the associated rates of change.
