Abstract

See full text

Payload performance is optimized by determining yaw trajectory employing a method which develops a mathematical expression to define the payload in terms of `n` location(s) on the earth; determining the pointing error of the `n` location(s); combining the error so as to product a single performance parameter and minimizing the value of the performance parameter by appropriately varying yaw.
