Initial acquisition with cluster launches isdifficult
• There is increased access to space -cluster launches and TLE Lottery
• We can construct Autonomous GroundStation Networks (AGSNs).
• Initial acquisition through Dopplerbased OD.
• Deep space orbit determination
(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (2/17)
An ML Algorithm to do OD• Orbital parameters Γ
• Uncertainty distribution PΓ
• Observation interval T
• Observed by ground stationnetwork
• Machine Learning Algorithm toestimate orbits 1
1Sharma et. al IPNPR 2015(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (3/17)
Can a practial GSN satisfy AlgorithmicConditions?
The machine learning algorithm requires some conditions to be met
• Guaranteed observation of samples of any orbit from uncertaintydistribution
• Observability
• Continuity of map

We can integrate OD into GSN Sessions
• GSNs work by reserving nodes(ground stations) through sessions.
• Orbit determination will be doneinside of an “ODTrack Session”.
• The ODTrack Session is a group ofGS Sessions. ODTrack Session
(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (7/17)
The learning cluster determines the OD session
• Learning Cluster samples the uncertainty distribution.
• Selects ground stations based on visibility.
• Coordinated antenna pointing.

Intervals of uncertain passes• Break down OD into intervals of observation• One pointing direction per interval
Wellington Doppler distribution has passintervals Wellington azimuth elevation distribution has
bands
(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (10/17)
Point at the expected zero Doppler point
Collect zero Doppler time points
• Antenna is approximated as acone (cone angle: 3dBbeamwidth)
• Antenna will point to theexpected value of the azimuthelevation distribution
(Azim., elev.) probability of zero Doppler
Antenna cone points along expected AzEl(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (11/17)
A Pointing Profile• Training Data is limited to learning with the profile information• Profile + Interval information is sent to ASGS• ODTrack Session is reserved for interval periods• ASGS points antennas and examines spectrum during ODTrack
intervals
Azimuth and elevation of pruned training data(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (12/17)
Simulated Scenario
• Total Uncertainty in initial position of satellites: 863 km• Observation Interval: 6 hours• Deployment Interval: 200s• Average Separation at initial state: 36km• Noise in Doppler shift estimation: 2.5%∆fmaxDoppler
• Synchronization error between Ground stations: ≤ 1ms
• Probability of transmission = 0.08 ( 1 in 10 seconds)
(Sharma, Cutler, 2018) (13/17)
ResultsAverage error in initial position estimation: 21.44km

Conclusion and Future Work
• ODTrack Session Architecture for GSNs• Algorithms for session instantiation for OD• Coordinated Pointing Profiles for GSNs
Future Work
• Multiple antenna ground station nodes• Integrating Learning with independent RADAR and Ground
station based Doppler observations
