A method for accurate and efficient propagation of satellite orbits: A case study for a Molniya orbit
Fast and precise propagation of satellite orbits is required for mission design, orbit determination and payload data analysis. We present a method to improve the computational performance of numerical propagators and simultaneously maintain the accuracy level required by any particular application....
