Abstract

An apparatus for providing optimized power balanced variable thrust transfer orbits (402) to minimize an electric orbit raising duration is disclosed. The electric orbit raising includes a first transfer orbit (402) and a target orbit (408). The apparatus includes control electronics (140) configured to transfer to a second transfer orbit (402) to reach the target orbit (408). A variable thrust based on a current electric power balance is determined. The control electronics (140) are further configured to execute a maneuver to transfer from the first transfer orbit (402) to the second transfer orbit (408) according to the determined variable thrust and a predetermined maneuver plan (156). The predetermined maneuver plan (156) includes a set of compound steering parameters (158). The set of compound steering parameters (158) are based on an optimized variable thrust and an associated electrical power balance to the optimized variable thrust. An optimized series of transfer orbits minimizes the electric orbit raising duration.
