Abstract
We present the results of MEGNO analysis of the long-term orbital evolution of uncontrolled objects of satellite radio navigation systems in medium Earth orbits and geostationary orbits. It is shown that secular resonances affecting these objects may give rise to dynamic randomness in their long-term orbital evolution.
