Special Features in the Structure of Resonant Perturbations of Uncontrollable Objects of Glonass and GPS Navigating Systems. Influence on the Orbital Evolution

Аннотация

Results of investigation into the resonant structure of perturbations and long-term orbital evolution of space vehicles of GLONASS and GPS global navigating satellite systems (GNSS) under assumption that all of them have lost control on 08/01/2015 are presented. It is demonstrated that the majority of the examined objects are in the range of action of the secular resonances of various types. In addition, practically all satellites of the GPS system are within the scope of the 2:1 orbital resonance with rotation of the Earth. Results of the MEGNO analysis demonstrate that the motion of all objects of the GLONASS system during the 100-year period is regular, whereas the motion of the majority of objects of the GPS system is subject to chaotization.
