Description
Summary:A Regional positioning system using three geosynchronous Turksat satellites is investigated in this paper. In this system, a time code signal sent from an earth station to three geostationary satellites is received by a user on Earth. Time delay differences from three satellites are measured by the user and are used to calculate the user's position. The user's location information includes latitude and longitude coordinates. It is assumed that the user's altitude is measured by an altimeter.
