Abstract

Automation of the key flight dynamics operations for the low Earth orbit satellite mission control is designed and implemented. The automation includes coordinate transformation, tracking data formatting, orbit determination, and orbit prediction. An object-oriented design methodology is used for design of the automation system. Graphical user interface is implemented using Trolltech QT. The automation is applied to the KOMPSAT-2 flight dynamics system for daily routine operations.
