A method of determination of perturbations in the elements of a satellite intermediate orbit is described. The intermediate orbit takes into account in full the earth's oblateness. For perturbing factors of gravitational nature, all the secular and short-period perturbations up to the third order and all the long-period perturbations up to the second order inclusive are obtained. The theory takes into account combined perturbations with respect to different perturbing factors. A comparison of the theory with results of a numerical integration is made for the case of perturbations caused by the earth's gravitational field. This comparison shows that the accuracy of the new theory turns out to be not worse than 18 cm in satellite coordinates.
