Abstract: | A new method of Earth gravity model improvement based on an analytical formulation of Doppler residuals is presented here in prospect of future geodetic and altimetric missions (DORIS, TOPEX/POSEIDON, ERS1). After an intermediate step of orbit improvement, disturbing forces due to gravity field mismodeling are recovered above tracking stations at satellite altitude. Some significant simulation results for SEASAT and DORIS are presented. |
