The Short-Arc Precise Orbit Determination of GEO Satellites Using VLBI and Transfer Ranging

It is important for a geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) satellite to rapidly recover its orbit after a maneuver with short-arc precise orbit determination (POD). Based on orbit determination by transfer tracking (ODTT), the POD accuracy of a GEO satellite is less than 10 m over a short arc. ODTT can a...
