Research on inter-satellite in high dynamic measurement technique environment

An improved measurement algorithm, based upon the theory of two-way time transfer （ TWTT）, is proposed to measure satellites with high speeds. The algorithm makes theoretical analyses and corresponding deductions on a relative motion model of two satellites, and eliminates the measurement error caused by the equipment delay when a satellite moves at a high speed. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that in comparison with the conventional TWTT algorithm, the proposed algorithm can significantly enhance the measurement accuracy of the inter-satellite ranging and time synchronization, and the algorithm is more effective with the relative velocity between the satellites and transmitting delay becoming larger.
