SLR Contribution to Investigation of Polar Motion

SLR technique has being used for determination of ERP during over twenty years. Most of results contributed to IERS are based on analysis of observations of Lageos 1&2 satellites collected at the global tracking network of about 40 stations. Now 5 analysis centers submit operative (with 2-15 days delay) solutions and about 10 analysis centers yearly contribute final (up to 23 years) ERP series. Some statistics related to SLR observations and analysis is presented and analyzed. Possible problems in SLR observations and analysis and ways of its solution are discussed.
