Description:
Report describes accurate method of determining orbit of low-altitude Earth satellite. Method insensitive to clock errors and provides continuous determination of orbit. Report examines effects of employing fewer ground stations, applying different solution strategies, and introducing fictitious thrust parameters to minimize geopotential modeling error - one of major error sources.
