An analysis of the orbit of the 1967-104B satellite as it passed through 29:2 resonance with the earth's gravitational field over the January 1977-September 1978 period has allowed lumped 29th-order geopotential harmonic coefficients to be obtained on the basis of inclination and eccentricity changes. A comparison of these values with those of existing comprehensive geopotential models established that the best agreement is with the model of Rapp (1981). The analysis has shown that in order to derive more accurate lumped harmonics from satellites near the critical inclination, eccentricity must be less than 0.003.
