DERIVATIONS OF COEFFICIENTS RELATING ASCENT TRAJECTORY DISPERSIONS TO AGENA GUIDANCE AND PERFORMANCE VARIATIONS.
Abstract
Equations are derived which relate errors in vehicle performance parameters and guidance components to the trajectory variation at final-stage cutoff. Expressions are included for the propagation coefficients of the orbit parameters during the parking orbit. These coefficients relate errors in first-burn cutoff conditions to second-burn ignition conditions. A degree of generality is achieved by considering both a two-stage and a three-stage configuration. (Author)
