The application of four light pressure models, including the standard model, two empirical models with different degrees of complexity, and physical-empirical model taking into account the optical properties of the spacecraft (SC) surface for prediction of SC motion and determination of its orbits is analyzed. The accuracy of these models used to determine the orbits of the GLONASS satellite system and the stability of the model parameters are estimated.
