  • With successful minimization of the user terminals of Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) and the development in higher gain and wider half-power beam of antennas, especially the upcoming multiple-access ability of TDRS, it is highly possible to control low and middle earth orbit satellites and rocket launch merely by TDRS. This paper analyzes the advantages of TDRS controlling spacecrafts, supporting rocket lunch and strengthening response ability to the emergency control call for on-orbit satellite management. The results show that only a few TDRS with multiple-access antenna could control all China low on-orbit satellites. Although a TDRSS' user terminal is generally required to install an omni-antenna to response any emergency control call, this paper proposes a method that even a satellite equipped with a TDRS user terminal of a directional antenna can response to emergency control. It will further improve the low orbit satellite control's efficiency.
