2 Agenda Brief historical background of Astrodynamics General principles of Astrodynamics What we do at AMOS Questions and Answers 2
3 Historical Background (1 of 2) Nicholas Copernicus ( ) De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium (1543) Heliocentric (circular) Galileo Galilei ( ) Agreed with Copernicus Performed gravity experiments at the tower of Pisa Tycho Brahe ( ) Detailed observations used by Kepler 3

7 Historical Background (2 of 2) Johannes Kepler ( ) Harmonices Mundi Libri V (1619) Kepler s 3 observations (kinematic) Planet orbits are ellipses with Sun at one focus Planet-Sun line sweeps equal areas in equal times Square of the period is proportional to cube of its mean distance to the sun (semi-major axis) Isaac Newton ( ) Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Matematica (1687) Newton s 3 laws (kinetic) Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right (straight) line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it. The change of motion is proportional to the motive force impressed and is made in the direction of the right line in which that force is impressed. To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or, the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal and directed to contrary parts. 7

13 Satellite Orbit 6 independent parameters completely describe an orbit R and V COE Ra, Dec, Range, Ra-rate, Dec-rate, Range-rate (can substitute Ra and Dec with Az and El Photo courtesy of Dr. Steve Nerem: Satellite Geodesy at CU 13
14 Orbit Determination Deterministic Uses observations and analytical expressions to determine the satellite orbit Gauss and Laplace Methods Statistical Uses observations and some differential correction method (or estimation theory) to improve upon a priori information (reference orbit). 14
15 Orbit Determination We have a reference orbit or best guess as to where the spacecraft was/will be and a probability of it being there (knowledge) Our spacecraft predictions are based on our mathematical/physical models and are only as good as our knowledge of the spacecraft s location and errors in our models Our observations are taken of a spacecraft on its true (actual) trajectory, however we will NEVER recover the true trajectory (observations aren t perfect [i.e. corrupted by noise and error sources]) Can we improve our knowledge of where the spacecraft was/will be based on our observations? The observations are telling us something about the true trajectory and about the forces and parameters affecting it Can we reduce errors in our dynamic and non-dynamic models? Orbit determination seeks to minimize the differences between what we actually observe and what we think we should observe. If our models were perfect, this difference would be a zero mean white noise. The Kalman filter attempts to estimate (or adjust) model parameters in order to achieve this (depending on how strong or sensitive the data are in recovering these parameters). 15
16 Orbit Determination Knowledge Ellipse Observed Orbit True Orbit Reference Orbit Atmospheric Interface 16
17 Purpose of Orbit Determination Trajectory Reconstruction Where was the spacecraft? Best estimated flight path How well do we know where it was? Associated error of the estimated flight path What information did we recover from this? Do we know something more about our models (dynamic and/or measurement) Trajectory Prediction Where will the spacecraft be? How well do we know where it will be? Do we have refined models (dynamic and/or measurement)? 17
18 What affects our dynamics? The trajectory is determined by a number of forces acting on the spacecraft: Gravitational forces Dominant body force (dominant body is treated as spherically symmetric; produces pure Keplerian motion) Non-dominant body forces (third body forces) Dominant body gravity field asymmetries General relativistic effects Non-gravitational forces Thruster activity Trajectory Correction Maneuvers or Orbit Trim Manuevers Attitude Control System Angular Momentum Desaturations (AMDs) Solar radiation pressure and Earth Albedo Thermal radiation Aerodynamic effects (Drag) Gas leaks (real or compensative) Propulsion system Outgassing Unknown/unmodeled accelerations 18
