Extension of idea, proposed by I.M.YATSUNSKIY, of expanding secular variations of orbit elements in Bessel functions of imaginary argument is extended which results in simple formulas used to solve problems, such as determination of dependence of secular variations of orbit elements on values of elements themselves, estimation of accuracy of determination of air density from measured secular variations etc. Translation from Iskusstvennye Sputniki Zemli n 3 1959.
