A Positioning Method and Realization on Single Satellites in Different Orbits Using TDOA

The main geolocation technology currently used in COSPAS-SARSAT system is TDOA/FDOA or three-star TDOA,the principle is to determine the location of the signal source by using the difference in arrival time and frequency of the wireless signal between different receivers.Therefore,ground monitoring stations need to be equipped with more than two antenna receiving stations,and multiple satellites should be able to simultaneously relay the distress signal from the target source in order to achieve the geolocation function.However,when the ground receiving system has only one antenna receiving station,or the target source is in a heavily obscured environment,the ground side is unable to receive the forwarded signals from multiple satellites at the same time,which will make it impossible to locate.To address these problems,in this paper,a time-sharing single satellite geolocations method based on different orbits is proposed for the first time.This method uses one or several low-earth orbit satellites(LEO)and mediumearth orbit satellites(MEO)in the visible area,and the receiving station only needs one pair of receiving antennas to complete the positioning.It can effectively compensate for the shortcomings of the traditional TDOA using the same moment and have better positioning accuracy compared with the single satellite in the same orbit.Due to the limited experimental conditions,this paper tests the navigation satellite using different orbit time-sharing single satellite geolocations,and proves that the positioning method has high positioning accuracy and has certain promotion and application value.

Relativistic Quantitative Determination of the “Mysterious” Differences in the Hubble Constant

This paper discusses the “Hubble constant measurement—mystery”. Independent measurements of this cosmic parameter, referred to as H0 in abbreviated form, have all led to different values, with the highest value ≈ 74 km·s-1·Mpc-1 and the lowest ≈ 67 km·s-1·Mpc-1, where km denotes kilometer, s second and Mpc-1 megaparsec. These measurements have mainly been obtained with space telescopes. Apparently, up to now there was no way to explain the differences. However, previously published studies seem to regard the problem of the different measurement results for H0 [1, 2]. I have shown that due to a symmetrical expansion of the Minkowski space (SMS), each respective frame of reference for an observer, who rests in the zero point of the frame, is converted into a state of apparent rest relative to the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. This SMS-relativistic effect also seems to be responsible for the different measurement results of the Hubble constant, especially through space telescopes.

Different Charging-Induced Modulations of Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital Energies in Fullerenes in Comparison with Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene Sheets

The highest occupied molecular orbital（HOMO） energies of fullerenes are found by quantitative first-principles calculations to be raised by negative charging, and the rising rate rank of the fullerenes is C60 >C70 >C80 >C90>C100 >C180. Then we compare fullerenes with carbon nanotubes（CNTs） and graphene sheets（GSs） and find that the increase of the HOMO energy of a fullerene is much faster than that of CNTs and graphene sheets with the same number of C atoms. The rising rate rank is fullerene>CNT>GS, which holds no matter what the number of C atoms is or which structure the fullerene isomer is. This work paves a new path for developing all-carbon devices with low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials as different functional elements.
