About this technology

Overview

The two-dimension Probability of collision (Pc) calculation module set is one of the Conjunction Assessment Risk Analysis (CARA) Software Development Kit (SDK). It implements the calculation of the probability of collision of two satellites given the state estimates and covariances, following the methodology of Foster and Estes (1992).
