| Abstract: | The science requirements on future gravity satellite missions, following from the previous contributions of this issue, are
summarized and visualized in terms of spatial scales, temporal behaviour and accuracy. This summary serves the identification
of four classes of future satellite mission of potential interest: high-altitude monitoring, satellite-to-satellite tracking,
gradiometry, and formation flights. Within each class several variants are defined. The gravity recovery performance of each
of these ideal missions is simulated. Despite some simplifying assumptions, these error simulations result in guidelines as
to which type of mission fulfils which requirements best. |
