Abstract

The paper considers the methods of high-precision navigation of space geodetic systems. A technology of determining the orbit parameters by kinematic and dynamic methods using GLONASS signals is proposed. It is for the first time that experimental estimates of position errors have been obtained in a study case of Geo-IK-2 spacecraft, with the measurement residuals of the global quantum-optical network being at the level of 0.06 m (RMS).
