Orbit of a Satellite Calculator

Posted by Dinesh on

Online satellite orbital calculator to calculate flight velocity and orbital period at the given satellite height.

How to Calculate Satellite Orbit?

Before calculate satellite orbit you have to know the height of orbital altitude from the earth location. Just enter the height of the satellite in km, then this tool will calculate flight velocity, orbital period of a satellite.

Calculate Satellite Velocity, Orbital Period

Formula:

v = √398600.5 / (6378.14+h)
P = 2 × π√398600.5 / (6378.14+h)

where,
h = orbital altitude,
v = flight velocity,
P = orbital period
