A Tundra orbit (Russian: орбита «Тундра») is a highly elliptical geosynchronous orbit with a high inclination (approximately 63.4°), an orbital period of one sidereal day, and a typical eccentricity between 0.2 and 0.3.

2018年1月3日 · Tundra is intended for a single satellite to observe one specific point of Earth. Molniya is an orbit intended for 3-satellite constellations and it has a period of half a day. It's also used to observe two off-equator regions of Earth, 180 degrees of longitude apart.

The Tundra orbit is a special type of G eosynchronous Orbit which is highly inclined from the Earth's equator. A Tundra orbit is also elliptical such that the satellite spends more time North of the equator than South of it.

A Tundra orbit (Russian: орбита «Тундра») is a highly elliptical geosynchronous orbit with a high inclination (approximately 63.4°), an orbital period of one sidereal day, and a typical eccentricity between 0.2 and 0.3.

A geosynchronous orbit (sometimes abbreviated GSO) is an Earth-centered orbit with an orbital period that matches Earth's rotation on its axis, 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds (one sidereal day).

Tundra orbit for high latitudes and polar regions, as a possible candidate to fill the data gap left by GEO. The Tundra orbit is uniquely different from GEO and LEO and is characterized by three key features [7]: geosynchronous period, nonzero inclination angle, and nonzero orbital eccentricity. The long

2019年4月21日 · Essentially a highly elliptical Geosynchronous Orbit (covered in the upcoming High Earth Orbit section), Tundra orbits have an apogee of 46,990 km above sea level and a perigee of 23,980 km above sea level.

From a debris mitigation perspective, this makes the use of Tundra orbits more attractive than the use of GEO orbits. This paper presents a detailed study of Tundra disposal orbits. Long-term propagations were performed using the precision integration code TRACE.

2017年1月15日 · Tundra-type orbits are elliptical geosynchronous orbits located at the critical inclination. The long-term dynamical evolution of this type of special orbit is investigated in this paper. First, the effect of Earth’s gravitational potential is examined.

A Tundra orbit (Russian: орбита «Тундра») is a highly elliptical geosynchronous orbit with a high inclination (approximately 63.4°), an orbital period of one sidereal day, and a typical eccentricity between 0.2 and 0.3.
