The application of GPS navigation system to the H-II orbiting plane
Abstract
Analytical results of GPS receiver design and orbit determination are presented including expected pseudorange and delta pseudorange variations, tolerance to high dynamic motion, antenna location, and navigation performance as applied to the Japanese H-II orbiting plane. The receiver design will be initially verified by installing the GPS receiver on the orbital reentry experimental vehicle, OREX. Details of the OREX experiment to be launched by the first H-II rocket are discussed.
