Initial Values Determination of Thrust Parameters for Continuously Low-Thrust Maneuvering Spacecraft

Continuous low thrust is widely used in orbit transfer maneuvers. If the unknown maneuvers are not correctly compensated, the orbiting accuracy will be seriously affected. We propose a rapid method for pre-identifying thrust acceleration based on single-arc orbit determination in order to determine...
