Signal acquisition of Iridium NEXT satellites’ signal in the long baseline positioning scenario. (Credit: Aerospace Information Research Institute) A novel method using signals of opportunity from low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites is redefining what’s possible in satellite-based navigation. Researchers have developed a joint pseudo-range and Doppler positioning technique that taps into signals from constellations like Starlink and Iridium NEXT — without relying on traditional navigation signal structures. By employing low-cost, wide-beam antennas and a specially designed […]
