UNIFIED GEODETIC PARAMETER PROGRAM (GEOPS). VOLUME I OF II- MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS.

Abstract

A detailed mathematical description is presented associated with the computer program which will recursively obtain minimum variance estimates of orbital parameters, geopotential coefficients, station locations, and tracking systems error model coefficients from measurements taken by diverse electronic and optical tracking systems.
