This paper describes the results of a study to evaluate the orbit determinatioin of Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) user spacecraft within the dual-Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) environment. Dense TDRSS tracking of the Earth Radiation Budget Satellite (ERBS) was acquired for the period August 16 through 22, 1989. This tracking information was processed to evaluate the orbit determination consistency achieved using the Goddard Trajectory Determination System batch least-squares estimator. The effects of the use of the second operational relay spacecraft, of refinements in orbit determination models (geopotentials, polar motion, solid earth tidal gravitational perturbations, ionospheric refraction corrections), and of methods for providing relay spacecraft spacecraft position information were also studied.
