Decimeter tracking of low Earth orbiters using differential Global Positioning System (GPS) techniques is discussed. A precisely known global network of GPS ground receivers and a receiver aboard the user satellite are needed, and all techniques simultaneously estimate the user and GPS satellite orbits. Strategies include a purely geometric, a fully dynamic, and a hybrid strategy. The last combines dynamic GPS solutions with a geometric user solution. Two powerful extensions of the hybrid strategy show the most promise. The first uses an optimized synthesis of dynamics and geometry in the user solution, while the second uses a gravity adjustment method to exploit data from repeat ground tracks. These techniques promise to deliver subdecimeter accuracy down to the lowest satellite altitudes.
