Dual-Satellite Localization for Space-borne GNSS Receivers in the Space Service Volume

Shuai Jing, Xingqun Zhan

Abstract:	The present flourishing aerospace applications make great claims upon GNSS service capacity, which contributes to the emergence of a new concept, Space Service Volume (SSV). In order to overcome the disadvantage of undesirable SSV signal availability and improve the navigation accuracy, the paper interprets the feasibility of a two dimensional positioning method using dual-satellite theoretically. For SSV users, the implementation of sequential filter which combines accurate force models with two different satellite measurements is introduced, and the operational process of orbit determination for spacecrafts travelling in the domain of SSV is also presented. Simulation results prove the experimental effects of the proposed technology, and explore the future prospects of GNSS applications in the SSV.
