Abstract

See full text

A method of injecting a missile, having a solid fuel motor, into a satellite orbit. The method includes determining an along-track displacement and cross-track displacement with respect to the satellite orbit. The method also includes determining a velocity-to-be-gained for the satellite orbit, with respect to the current missile velocity. Along-track and cross-track wasting of the solid fuel motor are used to reach the satellite orbit, at the proper velocity for the satellite orbit, when the solid fuel motor burns out.
