Abstract
AbstractThe in-plane motion of a Geosynchronous satellite under the gravitational effects of the sun, the moon and the oblate earth has been studied. The radial deviation (Δr) and the tangential deviation (rcΔθ) have been determined. Here rc represents the synchronous altitude. It has been seen that the sum of the oscillatory terms in Δr for different inclinations is a small finite quantity whereas the sum of oscillatory terms in rcΔθ for different inclinations is quite large due to the presence of the low-frequency terms in the denominator.
