Estimation of Orbital Decay for the Soviet Satellite COSMOS 1402
The algorithm was developed for the estimation of orbital decay of the Soviet Satellite COSMOS 1402 which divided into three body-COSMOS 1402-A, B and C- and fell down early in 1983. The perturbation effects due to the nonspherical geopotential and air drag were considered and the standard atmospher...
