Resumen
This paper presents an analytical method to determine the rise-set times of satellite-satellite visibility periods in different orbits. The Visibility function in terms of the orbital elements of the two satellites versus the time were derived explicitly upto e4. The line-of-sight corrected for Earth Oblateness up to J2, were considered as a perturbation to the orbital elements.
The visibility intervals of the satellites were calculated for some numerical examples in order to test the results of the analytical work.
