Variations of the Local Time of Ascending Node for the Initial Inclinations of the KOMPSAT

The optimal initial inclination for minimizing the variation of the Local Time of Ascending Node(LTAN) during the three year mission of the KOMPSAT is investigated. At first, the analytical equation for the inclination change by the Sun is derived and the optimal initial inclination by analytical me...
