Stringent navigation accuracy requirements for future deep space missions are expected to be met by conventional two way radio metric data supplemented with Very Long Baseline Interferometric (VLBI) data provided by a dedicated tracking network. The performance of several proposed VLBI network configurations have been evaluated by comparing navigation capability for the probe delivery and post flight probe trajectory phases of the Galileo mission. Candidate configurations include stations located at the current intercontinental DSN sites, a network with sites in Hawaii, Florida and Washington, Regional (300 km) and a Micro (30 km) baseline systems. Sensitivity to systematic error sources, network deployment, viewing period and sampling strategy are investigated. The dominant factor in performance is shown to be the baseline length.
