50 Satellite Formation-Flying and Rendezvous
Parkinson, et al.: Global Positioning System: Theory and Applications — Chap. 50 — 2017/11/26 — 19:03 — page 1 1 50 Satellite Formation-Flying and Rendezvous Simone D’Amico1) and J. Russell Carpenter2) 50.1 Introduction to Relative Navigation GNSS has come to play an increasingly important role in satellite formation-flying and rendezvous applications. In the last decades, the use of GNSS measurements has provided the primary method for determining the relative position of cooperative satellites in low Earth orbit. More recently, GNSS data have been successfully used to perform formation-flying in highly elliptical orbits with apogees at tens of Earth radii well above the GNSS constellations. Current research aims at dis- tributed precise relative navigation between tens of swarming nano- and micro-satellites based on GNSS. Similar to terrestrial applications, GNSS relative navigation benefits from a high level of common error cancellation. Furthermore, the integer nature of carrier phase ambiguities can be exploited in carrier phase differential GNSS (CDGNSS). Both aspects enable a substantially higher accuracy in the estimation of the relative motion than can be achieved in single-spacecraft navigation. Following historical remarks and an overview of the state-of-the-art, this chapter addresses the technology and main techniques used for spaceborne relative navigation both for real-time and offline applications. Flight results from missions such as the Space Shuttle, PRISMA, TanDEM-X, and MMS are pre- sented to demonstrate the versatility and broad range of applicability of GNSS relative navigation, from precise baseline determination on-ground (mm-level accuracy), to coarse real-time estimation on-board (m- to cm-level accuracy). -

LAUNCH KIT December 2017 VA240 Galileo FOC-M7 SAT 19-20-21-22 VA240 Galileo FOC-M7 SAT 19-20-21-22 ARIANESPACE’S SECOND ARIANE 5 LAUNCH FOR THE GALILEO CONSTELLATION AND EUROPE For its 11th launch of the year, and the sixth Ariane 5 liftoff from the Guiana Space Center (CSG) in French Guiana during 2017, Arianespace will orbit four more satellites for the Galileo constellation. This mission is being performed on behalf of the European Commission under a contract with the European Space Agency (ESA). For the second time, an Ariane 5 ES version will be used to orbit satellites in Europe’s own satellite navigation system. At the completion of this flight, designated Flight VA240 in Arianespace’s launcher family numbering system, 22 Galileo spacecraft will have been launched by Arianespace. Arianespace is proud to deploy its entire family of launch vehicles to address Europe’s needs and guarantee its independent access to space. Galileo, an iconic European program Galileo is Europe’s own global navigation satellite system. Under civilian control, Galileo offers guaranteed high-precision positioning around the world. Its initial services began in December CONTENTS 2016, allowing users equipped with Galileo-enabled devices to combine Galileo and GPS data for better positioning accuracy. The complete Galileo constellation will comprise a total of 24 operational satellites (along with > THE LAUNCH spares); 18 of these satellites already have been orbited by Arianespace. ESA transferred formal responsibility for oversight of Galileo in-orbit operations to the GSA VA240 mission (European GNSS Agency) in July 2017. Page 3 Therefore, as of this launch, the GSA will be in charge of the operation of the Galileo satellite Galileo FOC-M7 satellites navigation systems on behalf of the European Union. -

Current Status and Future Navigation Requirements for Mexico City New Airport New Mexico City Airport in figures: • 120 million passengers per year; • 1.2 million tons of shipping cargo per year; • 4,430 Ha. (6 times bigger tan the current airport); • 6 runways operating simultaneously; • 1st airport outside Europe with a neutral carbon footprint; • Largest airport in Latin America; • 11.3 billion USD investment (aprox.); • Operational in 2020 (expected). “State-of-the-art navigation systems are as important –or more- than having world class civil engineering and a stunning arquitecture” Air Navigation Systems: A. In-land deployed systems - Are the most common, based on ground stations emitting radiofrequency signals received by on-board equipments to calculate flight position. B. Satellite navigation systems – First stablished by U.S. in 1959 called TRANSIT (by the time Russia developed TSIKADA); in 1967 was open to civil navigation; 1973 GPS was developed by U.S., then GLONASS, then GALILEO. C. Inertial navigation systems – Autonomous navigation systems based on inertial forces, providing constant information on the position of the flight and parameters of speed and direction (e.g. when flying above the ocean and there are no ground segments to provide support). Requirements for performance of Navigation Systems: According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) there are four main requirements: • The accuracy means the level of concordance between the estimated position of an aircraft and its real position. • The availability is the portion of time during which the system complies with the performance requirements under certain conditions. • The integrity is the function of a system that warns the users in an opportune way when the system should not be used. -

The United States has responded by insisting that existing treaties and rules governing the use of space are sufficient. The standoff has produced a six-year deadlock in Geneva at the United Nations Conference on Disarmament, but the parties have not been inactive. Russia and China have much to lose if the United States were to pursue the programs laid out in its planning documents. This makes prob - able the eventual formulation of responses that are adverse to a broad range of U.S. interests in space. The Chinese anti-satellite test in January 2007 was prelude to an unfolding drama in which the main act is still subject to revi - sion. -

Ofcourse in the widest sense, this is a highly precise, continuous, all-weather and a real-time technique. This Research Article is devoted to presenting recent results and developments in GNSS theory, system, signal, receiver, method and errors sources such as multipath effects and atmospheric delays. To make it more elaborative, this varied GNSS applications are demonstrated and evaluated in hybrid positioning, multi- sensor integration, height system, Network Real Time Kinematic (NRTK), wheeled robots, status and engineering surveying. This research paper provides a good reference for GNSS designers, engineers, and scientists as well as the user market. I. USE AND APPLICATIONS OF GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEMS In the year 2001, pursuant to the Third United Nations Conference on the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNISPACE-III), the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS) established the Action Team on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) under the leadership of the United States and Italy and with the voluntary participation of 38 Member States and 15 organizations. -
