Journal ArticleDOI
Precise orbit determination and gravity field improvement for the ERS satellites
Remko Scharroo,Pieter Visser +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Delft Gravity Model (DGM)-E04 has been proposed to reduce the radial orbit error by a factor of 2, and also outperforms the recent Earth Geopotential Model EGM96 in this respect.
Journal ArticleDOI

J. Sumner,Nicolas Tanguy,Pieter Visser +42 more
TL;DR: The MICROSCOPE satellite aims to test its validity at the 10^{-15} precision level, by measuring the force required to maintain two test masses exactly in the same orbit, by characterizing the relative difference in their free-fall accelerations.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Swarm SCARF (Satellite Constellation Application and Research Facility) as mentioned in this paper is a three-satellite constellation to study the dynamics of the Earth's magnetic field and its interactions with the Earth system, is expected to be launched in late 2013.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precise GRACE baseline determination using GPS
TL;DR: An extended Kalman Filter modeling the relative spacecraft dynamics has been developed and the combination of reduced dynamic filtering with the LAMBDA method results in smooth relative position estimates as well as fast and reliable ambiguity resolution.
