Description
Summary:The solar radiation pressure is one of the non-conservative force perturbation effects on earth satellite. A method presented to calculate the effect of radiation pressure on orbital elements for different altitude of satellites, the necessary calculation down by using modern Mat lab computer language. Typical results presented for radiation effect at deferent values of area mass ratio(A/m), the computed results indicated that the orbital elements much affected by solar radiation at high value of area mass ratio, also the effect on high orbit satellite is much more than that on low orbit satellite. The study also include the solar radiation pressure at two different value of ascending node ( Ω = 00 and Ω = 1800 ).
