- Orbit and Geodetic Parameter Determination System
-
- MicroCosm is a high precision orbit and geodetic parameter determination
- software system. Using partitioned Bayesian least squares and Cowell's method
- of numerical integration, MicroCosm performs solutions of satellite orbit and
- geodetic parameters without compromises in physical modeling
-
- The physical models used include atmospheric drag, solar radiation pressure,
- Earth gravitation, polar motion, Earth rotation, solid Earth tides, ocean
- tides, tectonic plate motion, ocean loading, third body gravitation, Earth
- precession and mutation, tropospheric refraction, transmitter and receiver
- clock variations, and instrumentation biases and ambiguities
-
- Measurements modeled include laser range, GLRS laser range, radar range, TDRSS
- range, GPS range (including single, double, and triple differences), radar
- range rates, TDRSS range rate, TRANET/GEOCEIVER Dopplers, DORIS Doppler, radar
- altimeter range, topocentric right ascension/declination, direction cosines,
- X/Y angles, and azimuth/elevation angles. Installation requires less than one
- hour and may be accomplished by following three pages of instructions provided
- with the product.
