GEOS-C orbit determination with Satellite to Satellite Tracking
Abstract
This report studies the feasibility of employing satellite to satellite tracking in lieu of ground based tracking to satisfy the orbit determination requirements of the GEOS-C mission. It is shown that with proper estimation procedures it is possible to obtain from Satellite to Satellite Tracking data a GEOS-C orbit whose altitude error averages about 1 meter. The usefulness of this data type for geopotential recovery is also indicated.
