A Case Study on the Effect of Atmospheric Density Calibration on Orbit Predictions with Sparse Angular Data

A Case Study on the Effect of Atmospheric Density Calibration on Orbit Predictions with Sparse Angular Data

Accurately modeling the density of atmospheric mass is critical for orbit determination and prediction of space objects. Existing atmospheric mass density models (ADMs) have an accuracy of about 15%. Developing high-precision ADMs is a long-term goal that requires a better understanding of atmospher...
