Studying of Effect of Regularization and Change of Independent Variable on the Solution of Perturbed 2BP

Effect of regularization on the solution of perturbed two body problem is investigated in this paper. Purposes of using this method are computational burden reduction and achieving desirable accuracy in the minimum time. In this regard the equations of motion are linearized and independent variable is changed from time to the true anomaly. These yield reducing run time, however increasing accuracy. The results of simulation confirm that utilizing this method in onboard computation or long term simulations is more suitable and efficient than other methods including general and special perturbation methods.
