Orbital angular velocity refers to how fast a point object revolves about a fixed origin. In other words, the time rate of change of its angular position relative to the center of the Earth. It is given by:

$$ \omega_{\text{orbit}} = \frac{v_{\text{orbit}}}{R_{\text{orbit}}} $$

Where:

• $\omega_{\text{orbit}}$ [°/s]: The angular velocity of the satellite.
• $v_{\text{orbit}}$ [m/s]: The satellite's Orbital Velocity.
• $R_{\text{orbit}}$ [m]: The satellite's Orbital Radius.
