NOZOMI’s Earth Swing-by • NOZOMI was launched in July 1998.• Due to some troubles, new orbit plan with Earth
swing-by was proposed. • R&RR observations were difficult in some period

For astrometry of S.C.Tasks to be done are
• VLBI for Finite distance radio source– A New VLBI delay Model corresponding to the CONS
ENSUS model.
• Narrow band width signal– Group delay or Phase delay
• Delay Resolution: (nano/pico seconds)• Ambiguity problem
• Data Processing and Analysis software– IP-sampler boards recording to HD– Software correlation & Analysis software

Analysis Procedure• Compute a priori (delay, rate) (C) and partials
– We modified CALC9 for our use(finite VLBI). (Thanks to NASA/GSFC group for permission to use)
• Extracting Observable (g, dg/dt, p)(O) with software correlator.
• Computing O-C and least square parameter estimation

True delay rate is obtainable from Doppler data.
Then, is XYZ(OD) really correct? Or remaining bugs in our analysis ?.

Summary• NOZOMI VLBI observations were performed with domest
ic and intercontinental baselines.• Finite VLBI delay model was derived.• An analysis software is developed with that delay model
based on CALC9.• Preliminary astrometric SC coordinates were obtained wit
h Group/Phase delay observables.• Problem of inconsistency in the coordinates need to be s
olved.• Solution with full baselines have to be obtained.• Next step:SC Astrometry-> Orbit estimation

• JPL/NASA has been employed– Japanese Space Agency (ISAS+NASDA=JAXA)
• NOZOMI(Japanese Mars Explorer)– Needs to support orbit determination with VLBI.
• Mission as our own Project
