俄扩充导航卫星系统

1994年8月11日，俄罗斯用质子号运载火箭将3颗全球导航卫星系统(Glonass)卫星送入倾角为64.8度的轨道。在此之前该系统已有13颗卫星运行在两个不同的轨道平面上，其中9颗仍在工作。     

美航宇局公布DART卫星撞击事故报告

5月16日，美国航宇局公布了去年4月15日“自主交会技术验证”（DART）卫星与其交会目标、已退役军用卫星“多路径超视距通信”发生碰撞事故的调查报告概要。报告称．因推力器基于错误的导航数据而过多地点火工作，DART在完成交会前已用光增压氮气机动燃料。

METHOD FOR DETECTING AND REPAIRING CYCLE SLIPS IN GPS NAVIGATION

A new method is proposed for detecting and repairing cycle slips in GPS navigation based on the dual frequency observations. It can be implemented through the following three steps: (1) The integer ambiguities of the current epoch are substituted by that of the previous epoch, so the ambiguity parameters are removed from the observation equations. (2) The abnormal observations are detected using the quasi accurate detection (QUAD) method and the satellite pairs of these abnormal observations are determined. Then the coefficient matrix of these satellite pairs is recovered. (3) The cycle slips of these satellite pairs are calculated using the LAMBDA method and integer ambiguities of the current epoch can be determined by adding the cycle slips into the integer ambiguities of the previous epoch. The key of this method is that the abnormal observations must accurately he detected, i.e. , the satellites having cycle slips must correctly be judged. Finally, compared with other methods the feasibility of the method is verified.     

北斗导航卫星发射成功
