Abstract
Traditional passive satellite positioning systems are facing problems such as construction difficulty, high operation and maintenance costs, and positioning range limits caused by quantity of launched satellites, due to gradually scarce earth’s orbit resources. Therefore, a radiation source positioning system design scheme based on quilted GEO communication satellites is proposed to meet with those problems. The proposed positioning system is able to intelligently choose one of three modes (three-satellites TDOA mode, dual-satellites FDOA/TDOA mode, or single-satellite mode), on the basis of searching satellites database, to position unknown radiation source. The positioning result is corrected using a known reference radiation station. To improve signal detection performance, a technology of co-channel interference cancellation is proposed when unknown radiation source signal forwarded by neighboring satellite is interference badly by its communication signal. Results of emulation shows, the proposed system can effectively locate unknown radiation sources within a range of 1000 kilometers, its positioning accuracy can reach 10 kilometers.
