Abstract

The method of constructing error model of pointing the telescope to the target is present in the article. It bases on using the angular encoders data (azimuth and elevation). This angles are fixed in time in the satellite laser ranging. The data is presented in the codes of angles (in inside frame) and the moments of time, in which they are fixed. The consistence of procedures and result of received model are presented in article. Also advantages and disadvantages of the new model are considered in comparison with the method of stars observers. The method tested on the 40 passes of the satellites. The model constructing in station "Kyiv-Golosiiv" in 2003 year is used for the comparison.[1]. The accuracy of this model is on the level 15 arcsec.
