The modelling and the methods necessary to predict satellite lifetimes are reviewed. Orbital perturbations, models for Earth's potential field, luni-solar attraction and atmospheric drag are considered. Static and dynamic density models are presented. Satellite properties (projected area and drag coefficient) are discussed. Analytical methods for using these models are examined and compared with other methods. The state of the art is assessed and areas requiring more research are identified.
