Scientific paper
A predicted/updated estimation procedure, equivalent to Kalman filtering driven by white noise for the LASSO mission is presented. Analyzing the root-mean-squares of the cartesian components of the estimated error in position and velocity as a function of time and the number of observations, an almost steady state can be reached. In such environments, by processing periodical sets of some hundreds of 2 to 3 m noisy range values, precision one order of magnitude better than a VHF based estimation is achieved. It is suggested that precision can be further improved by adding astronomical angle data like azimuth and elevation.
