Scientific paper

The precision orbit determination (POD) experiment on TOPEX/POSEIDON using the Global Positioning System (GPS) is yielding concrete results. Orbit consistency and accuracy tests indicate that GPS is routinely providing satellite altitude with an accuracy of better than 3 cm. Here we review the GPS experiment, its basic concepts, POD techniques and key results, and discuss the possible cost and performance benefits that may flow to future missions.
