Orbit determination by using GPS measurements of a launch vehicle is an important option for the initial orbit determination of the vehicle's payload, and its accuracy is higher than the results generated by radar measurements. However, only broadcast GPS ephemeris and clock products are used in the current GPS measurements processing method, and Klobuchar model is directly used. The paper proposes to use precise ephemeris and clock products, and adopts an improved ionospheric model based on altitude factor for GPS measurements processing. The dynamic smoothing method is further used. The numerical results show that the proposed method can improve the early orbit satellites orbit segment to determine accuracy.
