PRECISE ORBIT DETERMINATION SYSTEM AND METHOD USING GPS DATA AND GALILEO DATA

摘要

Provided are a method and system for determining a precise orbit of a LEO satellite. The method includes: estimating a precise ephemeris of a global positioning system (GPS) satellite by fitting an orbit perturbation-based GPS dynamics model to observation data of the GPS satellite received from a GPS observatory and estimating a precise ephemeris of a Galileo satellite by fitting an orbit perturbation-based Galileo dynamics model to observation data of the Galileo satellite received from a Galileo observatory; determining an initial orbit value of a LEO satellite by fitting an orbit perturbation-based LEO satellite's basic dynamics model to navigation data received from the LEO satellite; and determining the precise orbit of the LEO satellite by calculating a difference between observation values, which are calculated based on a GPS and Galileo data received from the LEO satellite, the GPS observatory and the Galileo observatory, and calculated values, which are calculated based on an orbit perturbation-based LEO satellite's dynamics model that was calculated using the initial orbit value of the LEO satellite and the precise ephemeris of the GPS and Galileo satellites. Since both the GPS and Galileo data are received and used to determine the precise orbit of a LEO satellite, more precise orbit determination can be achieved.
