A Study on Autonomous Update of Onboard Orbit Propagator
A method of autonomous update is presented for onboard orbit propagator. On board propagator is an alternative means that could be used for navigation purpose in case of CPS receiver`s failure. Although the ground station is not a able to upload a new propagator, the onboard propagator must be maintained most up-to-date. For this, a filtering technique
