SSA Sensor Tasking Approach for Improved Orbit Determination Accuracies and More Efficient Use of Ground Assets

摘要

CONFERENCE PAPER Current SSA sensor tasking and scheduling is not centrally coordinated or optimized for either orbit determination quality or efficient use of sensor resources. By applying readily available capabilities for centrally generating de-conflicted schedules for all available sensors and determining optimal tasking times, both the quality of determined orbits (and thus situational awareness) and the efficient use of sensor resources may be measurably improved.
