Researchers have developed OrbitNet, a novel method for predicting satellite orbits by incorporating velocity data alongside position. This approach enhances positional representations through cross-variable interactions and models temporal segments of trajectories to capture motion variations. Experiments demonstrate that OrbitNet outperforms existing time-series foundation models and general forecasting methods, showing strong performance on Starlink data and across six unseen satellite constellations.
