Abstract
Satellite orbit tomography is a newly developed method for
addressing the Dynamic Calibration of the Atmosphere (DCA). The focus
of this paper is a side-by-side comparison with other DCA methods that
use the raw tracking measurements and solve simultaneously for the
orbit state and parameterized density correction. The main
contribution of this work is to test the notion that, in general, an
estimator benefits from using raw measurements to solve for the state,
in contrast with an estimator that uses intermediate estimated
quantities in place of the raw measurements.
