Earth Radiation Pressure Modelling for Beidou IGSO Satellites
2017
This study shows ERP (Earth Radiation Pressure) is significant for precise
orbit determination of BeiDou satellites, systematic error is observable in the
orbit products if it is ignored in the orbital dynamics. Through subdividing
CERES (Cloud and Earth Radiation Energy System) 1° by 1° earth radiation grid
into 6 levels of triangles, a precise and runtime configurable earth radiation model
has been obtained. The results reveal that level 4 subdivision can make the relative
error of both longwave and shortwave radiation less than 1%. ERP acceleration
for BeiDou IGSO satellite(C08) and its effects on orbit have been analyzed
through modelling the earth radiation using a box-wing geometry model. The acceleration
in radial is about 2-4 times larger than the along track and normal with
magnitude 10-10m/s2
. 30-hour orbit prediction shows the 3D RMS error due to ERP
is 0.638 m and its maximum can reach 0.9 m.
