Abstract: In some implementations, a method of facilitating pointing of a mobile device at a satellite of a satellite constellation for satellite-based data communication, may comprise obtaining, at a first time point, historical orbital data indicative of orbital movement of a plurality of satellites of a satellite constellation over a period of time. The method may also comprise assigning a reference orbital dataset of the plurality orbital datasets determined at a reference time point to corresponding control boxes of a reference grid covering the satellite constellation, wherein each control box of the reference grid corresponds to a satellite of the satellite constellation. The method may also comprise mapping the plurality orbital datasets to the reference grid for an orbital model based on the assignment of the reference orbital dataset.
