Abstract

The available published General Perturbations solutions for satellite motion about an oblate planet are surveyed and systematically tabulated. This tabulation is used in a qualitative analysis leading to the selection of techniques best suited for satellite orbit prediction. The theories adopted for programming and quantitative analysis are those of Brouwer; Izsak; Hall, Gawlowicz and Vahradian; Petty and Breakwell; and that of Aeronutronic. Parametric comparisons between these theories and a Special Perturbations method, presented in graphical form, provide a means for evaluating the orbit prediction characteristics of the theories.
