Various components of outer planet navigation systems are examined using the Saturn portion of a MJS77 Mission as an example. Special emphasis is placed upon the planet relative and satellite relative orbit determination performance. The effects of constant and stochastic error sources are investigated by means of covariance studies, simulations, and worst case analyses. Preliminary requirements for both the quality of the radiometric and optical data, and for the a priori knowledge of satellite and planetary ephemerides are given for various levels of navigational accuracy. Mission benefits resulting from improved navigational capabilities are discussed.
