Abstract | ||||
The main concern in the present research work is to define the basic requirements study of many perturbations forces that affect ground tracks of Molniya satellite orbits. In this we are going to design a mathematical model to calculate the footprint of any satellite taking into account the effect of disturbing forces (oblatness and solar radiation pressure) in order to get the most accurate sub-satellite point, matlab language is used to design program to calculate the mathematical models of footprint satellites with numerical application of some different Molniya satellites orbit. | ||||
