Abstract:
Orbit determination processing of two-line element
(TLE) sets to extract additional orbital accuracy has
been studied for several years. Various approaches have
claimed success, and full catalog processing is
conducted at ESA. We extend the existing analyses and
conduct detailed evaluations of alternatives for the OD
processing. This includes examination of the number of
TLEs used, method of splicing ephemerides, force
models, fit spans, satellite category, and if the satellite is
classified as maneuverable.
