Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A satellite gravity mission is proposed to monitor the Earth's environment in Japan. In the mission, a satellite-to-satellite laser interferometer (SSI) will be employed to amplify the gravitational signal by measuring the relative velocity of twin satellite in the low earth orbit. The maximum range-rate we must measure is predicted to be 0.1 m/s, whereas the required sensitivity is lOnm/s in the measurement band of 10^<-2> ~ 1 Hz to detect the changes in the geoid with millimeter-level accuracy. We are developing a ground simulator to study the feasibility of the SSI for the future mission.
