Abstract

Based on the analyses of satellite range measurement, the optimal operation for satellite range measurement of KOMPSAT II, which operates in the low-earth orbit, was proposed in this paper. The orbital motion of the satellite was analyzed in viewpoints of radial velocity, acceleration and speed of acceleration. Correspondingly the effects for satellite ranging signal due to satellite motion were analyzed in viewpoints of doppler phenomena, which are doppler frequency, doppler rate and speed of doppler rate. The accuracy and ambiguity probability of the satellite range measurement were quantitatively analyzed under various circumstances. The optimal operation parameters for satellite range measurement were also analyzed based on the analyzed results. The analyzed results in this paper can be utilized in design of small-sized ground station for satellite range measurement.
