Abstract :
The paper analyzes a method to estimate radial acceleration jointly to other target parameters (i.e.: ρ̇ and A). The estimator performance has been analyzed in case of one burst and M burst, in both analytical and simulated ways. To have an exploitable estimate of ρ̈ an accuracy of at least 10 m/s2 is needed. To achieve this level of accuracy very high SNR is needed.
