Nonlinear orbit uncertainty prediction and rectification for space situational awareness

A new method for predicting the uncertainty in a nonlinear dynamical system is developed and analyzed in the context of uncertainty evolution for resident space objects (RSOs) in the near-geosynchronous orbit regime under the influence of central body gravitational acceleration, third body perturbat...
