Description
This book presents fundmentals of orbit determination--from weighted least squares approaches (Gauss) to today's high-speed computer algorithms
that provide accuracy within a few centimeters. Numerous examples and problems are provided to enhance readers' understanding of the
material.
Audience
Graduate students and researchers in aerospace engineering, astrodynamics, geodesy, and oceanography.
Researchers in the aerospace industry
and related research laboratories interested in satellite navigation and control.
