Precise Orbit Determination of GPS-36 Satellite Using Satellite Laser Ranging [PDF]
Satellite laser ranging is a technique for precisely measuring the range between a laser station and a satellite that is equipped with retro-reflectors. SLR technique was first used for Beacon-B satellite in 1964 with the ranging accuracy of meter level.

Precision Assessment of Near Real Time Precise Orbit Determination for Low Earth Orbiter [PDF]
The precise orbit determination (POD) of low earth orbiter (LEO) has complied with its required positioning accuracy by the double-differencing of observations between International GNSS Service (IGS) and LEO to eliminate the common clock error of the ...

Mathematical Modelling and a Numerical Solution for High Precision Satellite Ephemeris Determination [PDF]
In this paper, we develop a high-precision satellite orbit determination model for satellites orbiting the Earth. Solving this model entails numerically integrating the differential equation of motion governing a two-body system, employing Fehlberg's formulation and the Runge-Kutta class of embedded integrators with adaptive stepsize control.

Precise orbital elements, masses and parallax of the spectroscopic-interferometric binary HD 26441 [PDF]
The orbit of the visual-speckle binary A 2801 (HD 26441) was calculated independently of the previously published double-lined spectroscopic solution, obtaining similar values for the common orbital elements. In this way, it has been possible to provide a consistent 3D orbit and precise values for both the orbital parallax and the individual masses of ...

Locating the orbits delineated by tidal streams [PDF]
We describe a technique that finds orbits through the Galaxy that are consistent with measurements of a tidal stream, taking into account the extent that tidal streams do not precisely delineate orbits. We show that if accurate line-of-sight velocities are measured along a well defined stream, the technique recovers the underlying orbit through the ...
