Correcting Method of the Effect in Radar Range-rate Measurement by 6 DOF Movement of Sea-based TT&C Platform

Abstract

In order to solve the issue that the range rate measurements of the sea-based tracking radar cannot be used effectively in the orbit determination of space targets, a new correction method is proposed based on the investigation of error sources and the traditional methods. Numerical results using mission tracking data show that the proposed method can suppress the random and system errors of the range rate measurements effectively. The precision and accuracy of the corrected measurements sent to the control center are greatly improved.
