✦ Synopsis

Snmmary--A sequential estimator is presented and demonstrated which successfully tracks the system state and model errors in the presence of significant and unpredictable system or environmental variations. This adaptive estimation concept is shown to lead to a new and attractive approach to parameter identification problems. Simulation results are presented in an orbit determination problem, where the estimator tracks the orbit and unmodeled accelerations due to errors in the geopotential model. Some results in a re-entry trajectory estimation problem are also summarized.
