Earth Rotation Parameters Estimation Using GPS and SLR Measurements to Multiple LEO Satellites
Earth rotation parameters (ERP) are one of the key parameters in realization of the International Terrestrial Reference Frames (ITRF). At present, the International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) generates the satellite laser ranging (SLR)-based ERP ...

Satellite Laser Ranging to Low Earth Orbiters: Orbit and Network Validation [PDF]
Satellite laser ranging (SLR) to low Earth orbiters (LEOs) provides optical distance measurements with mm-to-cm-level precision. SLR residuals, i.e., differences between measured and modeled ranges, serve as a common figure of merit for the quality ...
