Abstract
One of the more developed, approbate in space condition, reliable and having big work resources electric propulsions (EP) is ion plasma thruster (IPT). Probably therefore for today it is in demand for solution of broad-spectrum tasks of space vehicles movement. One of them is orbit correction of weighty geostationary communication satellites.
