| Abstract: | Doppler satellite navigation relies on an initial position estimate with an iterative solution. A closed-form solution of this problem, which forms the basis of a complete analytic treatment, is presented. The solution is exact for arbitrary satellite orbits with an ellipsoid Earth model. |
