摘要：

We discuss a method to obtain daily sequential atmospheric profiles near a fixed Earth location by the optimal selection of a satellite in a Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The simulations have shown the possibility to design a LEO that can control the drift of sounding locations to be less than 100 km for periods of 60-200 days. An optimal LEO satellite selection may have practical applications for regional weather prediction and climate analysis.
