| Abstract: | Several options are being examined to reduce the costs of spacecraft and deep space missions. One such option is to fly spacecraft in a non-coherent mode, that is, the spacecraft does not carry a transponder and cannot coherently return a Doppler signal. Historically, such one-way data has not been used as the sole data type due to the instability of the onboard oscillator, the use of S-band frequencies, and the corresponding larger error sources which could not be modeled. However, with the advent of high-speed work stations and more sophisticated modeling ability, the possibility of using one-way data is being re-examined. This paper addresses the navigation performance of various one-way data types for use in interplanetary missions |
