The GOES-I Image Navigation and Registration (INR) system will fly on the next generation of NOAA geostationary meteorological satellites. This system uses observations of stars and earth landmarks made by the Imager and Sounder Instruments themselves to determine the orbit, attitude, and misalignment state of the spacecraft and instruments. An extensive program of simulation and analysis has been conducted to assess the expected performance of the INR system. This paper discusses these activities and presents some computer simulation results showing expected system performance under a variety of conditions including station-keeping.
