Abstract
Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites are a promising type of navigation augmentation satellite for current global navigation satellite systems. Aiming at the navigation function, an effective broadcast ephemeris model needs to be designed for LEO satellites. An enhanced integration-type broadcast ephemeris model is proposed in this study. First, the short-term periodical variation characteristics of LEOs’ accelerations in the Earth-centered Earth-fixed coordinate system are analyzed. The Chebyshev polynomials and harmonic functions are then applied to represent the variation perturbation of accelerations. Tests using simulated and real data from LEO satellites at altitudes from 600 to 1400 km are conducted to evaluate the fit accuracy of the proposed models in terms of arc length, integration method, integration step length, orbital altitude, inclination, eccentricity, etc. The fit accuracy is dramatically improved compared to that of the current GLONASS integration-type broadcast model, where fit errors less than 10 cm are achieved with an arc length of 20 min.
