FIELD: astronautics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to holding a geostationary spacecraft (SC) in a working position while monitoring an adjacent SC (ASC). Method is implemented by means of two radial correction engines (RCE) of monitoring SC (MSC), oriented to the nadir so that low-thrust vectors of RCE pass through the center of mass of MSC, supporting its orbit below the ASC orbit. Receiving antenna directed to the zenith (for reception of radiation from ASC) is installed on the MSC. Regular motors of longitude correction are used to convert MSC into circular orbit excluding the intersection of orbital circle by any SC located in this range of longitudes, incl. ASC. Cyclic diagram of successive inclusions RCE is activated, which does not allow interruptions between inclusions during the whole ASC monitoring stage.
EFFECT: technical result is aimed at maximally efficient monitoring of ASC while ensuring safe standstill MSC below ASC in "ASC-Earth" line.
