Analytical Solution for the Combined Solar Radiation Pressure and Luni- Solar Effects on the Orbits of High Altitude Satellites~!2010-02-02~!2010-02-16~!2010-06-11~!
Abstract:A new analytical solution is obtained for the motion of high-altitude earth satellites. The basic idea is to study the joint effects of direct solar radiation pressure and the gravitation of the Earth, Moon and the Sun on the orbits of the satellites. The mathematical model includes the zonal harmonics of the geopotential effects up to 4 J. The order of magnitude of each perturbing term is assessed. The formulae for the all perturbations forces are obtained up to the fourth order (where the mean motion of the … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
