The effect of different perturbing factors on the rectangular coordinates of outer satellites of Jupiter (VI-XII) and Saturn (VI-IX) is investigated by the numerical integration of the equations of motion. The effect of relativistic terms in the equations of motion is considered among other perturbations. The effect of weak perturbations is compared with the accuracy of modern observations of satellites.
