ANALYSIS ON THE COVERAGE CHARACTERISTICS OF GLONASS CONSTELLATION

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / The coverage characteristics of the GLONASS constellation is analyzed. The almanac
data of GLONASS navigation message are used in the computation according to the
operation of the satellites. The ground traces of the GLONASS satellites are plotted. And
the probability of visible satellite number is calculated under different latitude conditions.
The results are analyzed to give descriptions of the GLONASS constellation. And they
are compared with those of GPS's. The conclusion is verified that GLONASS
constellation provides better coverage at high latitude.
