PERTURBATION OF THE ORBITAL ELEMENTS OF A SYNCHRONOUS SATELLITE MOVING IN THE EARTH'S NON-CENTRAL GRAVITY FIELD,

Authors: S. G. Zhuravlev; DEFENCE SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION SERVICE OTTAWA (ONTARIO)
Abstract:
There have been a good many papers dealing with the effect of the non-centrality of the Earth's gravity field on the motion of an artificial satellite in the case where the mean motions are incommensurate. This paper derives analytic formulae for the first-order perturbations of the Keplerian orbital elements of a satellite, the unperturbed mean motion of which is equal to the Earth's angular velocity of rotation.
