Sun Hongwei, Li Zhigang, Li Huanxin, Li Yuli

Abstract: Based on several two-way satellite time and frequency transfer (TWSTFT) links and multi-channel time transfer modems, a positioning method to geo-stationary communication satellite is presented, moreover, the accuracy of the positioning is concisely estimated. The characteristics of the method are simple and practical. Especially, the positioning system is completely established on TWSTFT links, so it does not need an extra investment.
