초록

YLPODS (Yonsei Laser-ranging Precise Orbit Determination System) is POD system using SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging) data. YLPODS is developed for two main purposes. The first purpose is to verify the result of POD using GPS data. The second purpose is to perform POD using only SLR data. In this study, YLPODS performance test is presented for checking the reliability of POD using only SLR data. To perform POD, the information of CHAMP and TOPEX mission is applied and SLR NP (Normal Point) data is used. The test is performed by checking both range precision and 3D accuracy (radial, along, cross direction). To confirm of 3D accuracy, CHAMP GENESIS orbit and TOPEX JPL orbit of NASA are used.
