Abstract

In this paper, literal analytical solution in power series forms which is one of the semi-analytical solution, are developed for the regularized Burdet equations to estimate the motion of an artificial satellite under the influence of J2-Earth’s gravitational field. Also a numerical solution of the regularized Burdet equations is applied using eighth order Dormand-Prince Rung-Kutta method. Comparison between the power series solution and the numerical solution applied to high eccentric frozen satellite orbit is also given and showed excellent agreement.
