The purpose of this reference and handbook is to describe and to
derive the analytic
solutionsoftheequationsofsatellitemotionperturbedbyextraterrestrialandgeo-
tential disturbances of the second order. The equations of
satellite motion perturbed by extraterrestrial disturbances are
solved by means of discretization and appr- imated potential
function as well as Gaussian equations. The equations perturbed by
geopotential disturbances are solved by symbolic mathematical
operations. The traditional problem of singularity in the solutions
is solved by so-called singulari- free orbit theory. Simpli?ed
disturbed equations of motion are proposed to simplify the
solutions. Applications of the theory for analytic orbit
determination are also discussed. Indeed, this is the ?rst book
since the satellite era, which describes s- tematically the orbit
theory with analytical solutions, with respect to all of extrat-
restrial and geopotential disturbances of the second order, and the
solutions are free of singularity. Based on such a theory, the
algorithms of orbit determination can be renewed; deeper insight
into the physics of disturbances becomes possible; the way to a
variety of new applications and re?nements is opened. My primary
knowledge of the orbit theory came from my education of mat- matics
while studying physics and theoretical mechanics (1981). My ?rst
practical experience with orbit came from the research activity at
the Technical University (TU) Berlin on orbit corrections of the
satellite altimetry data (1988-1992). The extensive experience on
orbit came from the GPS/Galileo software development for orbit
determination and geopotential mapping at the GFZ (2001-2004).
