+\subsection{Comparison between the satellite orbits}
 
+Figure 1 show the difference between the orbits of the \sw, \he and \ig satellite.
+The \sw and \he satellites are situated in a circular orbit with 20.6$^\circ$ respectivly 2$^\circ$ inclination. The revolution period of the \sw and \he satellite add up to 100min. The \ig satellite is situated in an highly eccentric orbit with a revolution period around the Earth of three sidereal days.

+It is difficult to make strong conclusions from the individual satellite orbit. The orientation of the satellite FOV is influenced by the scheduled targets. Hovewer, \sw is the satellite with the largest inclination and overlaps mostly with the FOV of \ma. This increases the chance to recive {\bf Red Alarm} from this satellite.
