Abstract

In this paper, a relativistic differential VLBI (ΔVLBI) mathematical model for Chang´e-l(CE-1) Transfer orbit is derived. Based on the model, A VLBI time delay observations are formed by differencing CE-1 time delay observations with a simulated radio source time delay observations. Then the error equation of observations is formed and the unknown parameters including orbit of CE-1 and Earth Orientation Parameters (EOPs) are calculated under least squares adjustment. Finally, the accuracy of each parameter is given.
