Near-earth orbit determining method based on atmospheric drag acceleration measurement

Abstract

The invention discloses a near-earth orbit determining method based on atmospheric drag acceleration measurement, comprising the following steps: 1, carrying out preparation work; 2, measuring atmospheric drag acceleration; 3, carrying out non-conservative acceleration vector unitization; 4, giving orbit determination initial value; 5, constructing an orbit determination equation; and 6, solving the orbit determination equation. Through the steps, a triaxial accelerometer and a star sensor loaded on a spacecraft are used for acquiring the non-conservative force accelerated speed suffered by the spacecraft during in-orbit operation and the coordinate transformation matrix of a spacecraft body relative to a geocentric inertial coordinate, an orbit determination iteration computation initialvalue is acquired under the circular orbit assumption, the non-conservative force acceleration is corrected by utilizing atmospheric to acquire rotation term speed unit vector, the orbit equation is constructed and is solved by utilizing an orbit predictor and a numerical method, so that high-precision orbit determination is realized. The method can be independently used on the spacecraft, and isnot disturbed by the electromagnetic environment, is low cost and easy to achieve and can be widely applied to low earth orbit spacecraft.
