CCIR RECMN*484-3 72 = 4855212 0518702 385 Rec. 484-3 ANNEX 1 Factors affecting longitudinal station-keeping Perturbations in orbital elements A satellite is ideally geostationary if its orbital elements satisfy the following conditions: - semi-major axis a = synchronous radius =

9、42 165 km, - eccentricity e = O, - inclination i =O. The orbit gradually departs from the geostationary state, however, due to the perturbation forces acting on the satellite. The distortion of the Earths gravitational field due to the non-sphericity of the Earth causes either a steady increase or d

10、ecrease in the semi-major axis, according to the stationary longitude of the satellite. No change however occurs at four special longitudes called the equilibrium points. When the semi-major axis deviates from the synchronous radius by Aa (km) the satellite longitude drifts at the rate of -0.013 Au

11、degrees per day. The solar radiation pressure, acting in proportion to the ratio of satellite cross section to mass, changes the eccentricity with time. There is also a minor effect due to the Moons gravity. A non-zero eccentricity e yields a diurnal libration motion in the satellite longitude of as

12、 much as 12e x 180/n degrees. The gravity of the Moon and the Sun acting as a tidai force on the satellite changes the inclination at a rate that varies from year to year between 0.75“ and 0.95“ per year. A non-zero inclination i (degrees) yields a half-diurnal longitudinal libration motion of as mu

13、ch as +(;L/4) (n/180) degrees. This becomes significant for longitudinal station-keeping when the inclination is greater than a few degrees. 2. Errors in longitudinal station-keeping 2.1 Orbit determination error The accuracy of the station-keeping depends to some extent on the accuracy of orbit det

14、ermination. The orbit determination of geostationary communications satellites is generally based on ranging at two distantly located stations or on ranging and azimuth/elevation angle measurements at a single station; orbit determination based on ranging at only a single station is not feasible. Ap

15、propriate calibration of the ranging and, in particular, of the angle measurement yields an accuracy of satellite longitude determination within a few thousandths of a degree. 2.2 Orbit correction error Longitudinal station-keeping is carried out with East-West orbital corrections that adjust the se

16、mi-major axis and the eccentricity to their target values. In practice, the adjusted orbital elements after a correction have errors due to the efficiency of satellite thruster performance. The North-South orbital correction, which is to keep the inclination within a given limit, is kept from distur

17、bing longitudinal motion by selecting the ideal North-South thrust direction. In practice, however, the thrust has a non-North-South component due to attitude-control errors. An unexpected change in the longitudinal motion is therefore possible. The thrust for attitude control may also have a minor effect on the longitudinal motion. These factors together comprise the longitudinal station-keeping error, but the most significant is usually the coupling between the North-South orbital correction and longitudinal motion.
