Abstract:
A method for localizing a terminal includes transmitting the signal by the terminal; receiving the signal by a first and a second satellite; transmitting the signal from each satellite to a receiving station; demodulating the signal received by the first satellite to determine a signal content and the time of arrival of the signal transmitted by the terminal at the receiving station via the first satellite; determining the time of arrival of the signal transmitted by the terminal at the receiving station via the first and second satellite; determining a position for the terminal by triangulation.
