Orbit Injection Error Analysis
Abstract
In the study, offsets, products of inertia, tip-off errors, and nominal spin rate were varied to find the relative importance of each on the accuracy of the mission. Since no requirements have been placed on maximum or minimum apogee altitude acquired from the final initial conditions agreed upon, a parametric study was made showing the relative effect of varying each parameter. Assumptions have led to suggested tolerances on the controlled parameter.
