Correlation and Initial Orbit Determination for Short-Arc Optical Observations
Situational awareness of Earth-orbiting particles is highly important for future human activities in space. For optical observations of debris, multiple observations must be combined in order to determine the orbit of the observed object. It is generally uncertain, however, whether two arbitrary tracks are of the same object, and solving this problem can be computationally intensive. In this pa...
متن کاملDetermination of AJISAI spin parameters using Graz kHz SLR data
Using the Graz full rate kHz SLR data, we determined the spin rate and spin direction of the satellite AJISAI as well as its slow down between 2003/10 and 2005/06. The high density of the kHz data results in a precise scanning of the satellite’s retroreflector panel orientation during the spin motion. Applying spectral analysis methods, the resulting frequencies allow identification of the arra...
متن کاملShort-Arc Batch Estimation for GPS-Based Onboard Spacecraft Orbit Determination
In dynamic orbit determination, the problem is that a batch estimator assumes use of more sophisticated models for both force and observation models, dealing with large amounts of observations. As a result, the computational workload may not be acceptable for onboard orbit determination. In this paper, the short-arc batch estimation is experimentally studied in order to address both estimation ...
متن کاملEnvisat Spin and Attitude Determination Using SLR
Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) systems successfully measure attitude and spin period of Envisat. During the International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) campaign the SLR stations observed the satellite and provided measurements that allow determination of the attitude and the spin period of Envisat during year 2013. The spin parameters of the spacecraft are stable within a coordinate system fixed ...
متن کاملThe Use of Short-arc Angle and Angle Rate Data for Deep-space Initial Orbit Determination and Track Association
The population of deep space resident space objects (RSOs) are tracked with sparse resources and thus tracking data are only collected on these objects for a relatively small fraction of their orbit revolution (i.e. a short-arc). This contributes to commonly mistagged or uncorrelated RSOs, and their associated trajectory uncertainties (covariances) to be less physically meaningful. The case of ...
