Method and system for launching simultaneous of satellites on non-coplanar orbits using orbits other cams and the atmospheric braking

摘要

A first satellite is placed practically directly by a launcher in a final orbit (15). br / & a second satellite placed on the same launcher is transferred to a waiting orbit 12bis) (highly elliptical with the large axis is located in the initial orbital plane (12), then in the vicinity of the apogee (19) of the waiting orbit 12bis (), to a change of inclination of the waiting orbit 12bis) (and its perigee, in order to place the second satellite in an intermediate orbit (14). br / there is an operation comprising at least one step implementing atmospheric braking in the vicinity of the perigee (6a, 6b) of the intermediate orbit, so as to reduce the apogee altitude (19, 19a, 19b, 19c) of the intermediate orbit (14, 14a, 14b, 14c) and it provides the second satellite, an impulse at apogee (19c) of the intermediate orbit (14c) so as to raise the perigee and transforming the intermediate orbit (14c) in a final orbit (11) having orbital parameters whose values are substantially different from those of the orbital parameters of the final orbit (15).
