Numerical Approach for the Computation of Preliminary Post-Newtonian Corrections for Laser Links in Space

Two systems of Earth-centered inertial Newtonian orbital equations for a spherical Earth and three systems of post-Newtonian nonlinear equations, derived from the second post-Newtonian approximation to the Earth Schwarzschild field, are used to carry out a performance analysis of a numerical procedu...
