Popis: Geostationary satellites need yearly velocity increment of 40 to 50 m/s for the North-Sounth (NS) station keeping. JAXA's recent satellites are adopting low-thrust and high Isp (specific impulse) engines such as DC arc jets and ion engines for the NS station keeping. This paper reports the operation results of such NS maneuvers for the Data Relay Technology Satellite (DRTS: KODAMA) and the Engineering Test Satellite-8 (ETS-8: KIKU No.8).
