It can eliminate disturbance and maintain continuous satellite communication when the carrier is moving. Because of many advantages of mobile satellite communication, the MSCSs are becoming more and more popular in modern mobile communication. In this paper, a typical ship-mounted MSCS is studied. The dynamic model of the system is derived using the generalized Lagrange method both in the joint space and in the workspace. Based on the dynamic model, a nonlinear computed torque controller with trajectory planning is designed to track an aimed satellite with a satisfied transient response. Simulation results in two different situations are presented to show the tracking performance of the controller.展开更多

First, the basic positioning technique is described for location based ser- vice (LBS) in mobile communication systems. Then the high integrity global posi- tioning system (iGPS) is introduced in terms of aspects of what it is and how the low Earth orbit (LEO) Iridium telecommunication satellites enhance the global posi- tioning system (GPS). Emphasis is on the Chinese Area Positioning System (CAPS) which is mainly based on commercial geostationary (GEO) communication satellites, including decommissioned GEO and inclined geosynchronous communication satel- lites. Characterized by its low cost, high flexibility, wide-area coverage and ample frequency resources, a distinctive feature of CAPS is that its navigation messages are generated on the ground, then uploaded to and forwarded by the communication satellites. Fundamental principles and key technologies applied in the construction of CAPS are presented in detail from the CAPS validation phase to its experimental system setup. A prospective view of CAPS has concluded it to be a seamless, high ac- curacy, large capacity navigation and communication system which can be achieved by expanding it world wide and enhancing it with LEO satellites and mobile base stations. Hence, this system is a potential candidate for the next generation of radio navigation after GPS.展开更多

In order to solve the problem of unreasonable design for physical random access channel (PRACH) signal structure and reduce the effect of time uncertainty, this paper proposes a novel random access preamble based on time pre-compensation (TPC) for LTE-Satellite (LTE-S) system. In this scheme, by applying the method of non-linear least squares, the user terminal (UT) can use and based on the transmission delay the receiving power to estimate the communication round trip delay (RTD) of the beam center and the satellite, RTD can be compensated before transmission. Therefore, the preamble length and duration can be reduced without related to the maximum of RTD. In order to verify the performance of the scheme, the MATLAB is used to build a test system. The simulation results show that the proposed preamble satisfies the requirements of LTE-S system, and the better performance than previous researches is obtained.展开更多
