Abstract
It’s a review article about the Solar Radiation Pressure Theory (SRPT). The applications of SRPT in asteroid dynamics, space debris long-term evolution and artificial satellite orbit determination were reviewed. The main SRPT development process and status was introduced from three aspects, which were empirical model, analytical model and semi-empirical model. Several factors, i.e. Second-incident effect, Self-Occlusion effect and Poynting-Robertson effect, were discussed in SRP model building. For SRPT application, the key role of SRP in long-term dynamic evolution of space debris was particularly expatiated on, and the state-of-art was presented. Then we focused on the SRPT application in Beidou Navigation and Positioning System. We demonstrated some existing problems for model building, physical material property perceiving and solution parameters. Finally, we gave the SRPT development prospect.
