Varaition of Local Time of Ascending Node Due to the Altitude Decay of Sun-Synchronous Satellite
Variation of the Local Time of Ascending Node (LTAN) has been analyzed according to initial inclinations when the altitude of Sun-synchronous satellite is continuously decreased due to the atmospheric drag. Orbit predictions of 3 years have been performed with the satellite of 500 km altitude when t...
