Analysis on the coverage performance and networking scheme of an MEO constellation by Yanbin ZHAO, Renning WANG, Peipei HU

“…Geostationary earth orbit (GEO) satellite orbit position resources have been scarce for a long time.The development of giant low-orbit satellite constellations has made the low-orbit resources unprecedentedly scarce.As a compromise between GEO and low earth orbit (LEO) constellations, the medium earth orbit (MEO) constellation will surely become a battle field for all countries.Referring to various MEO constellations in the world and our national conditions, a (6+4) MEO constellation was proposed.STK (Satellite Tool Kit) was used to simulate and analyze the constellation coverage performance, inter-satellite link characteristics, gateway site selection and coverage performance.Inter-orbit communication was realized through ground station relay, effectively avoiding various problems through inter-satellite links.The system was more simple and steady.It's much valuable in strategy in the circumstance of global low-orbit resources scarce.…”

Approach of location privacy protection based on order preserving encryption of the grid by Nan SHEN, Chun-fu JIA, Shuang LIANG, Rui-qi LI, Zhe-li LIU

“…The centralized structure of the trusted third party is a major privacy protection structure on location based services.However,if the central third party server can not be trusted or compromised,users have the risk of leakage of privacy location.Aiming at the above problems,location privacy protection approach based on a user-defined grid to hide location was proposed.The system first automatically converted the query area into a user-defined grid,and then the approach utilized order preserving encryption,which made the user’s real-time position in the hidden state could still be compared.Because the information in the process of the approach was in a state of encryption,the server could not know the user’s location information,thus improved privacy protection of the user location.The central third party server only need to do simple comparison work,so its processing time overhead would effectively decrease.Security analysis certificate the security of the proposed approach and simulation experimental show the proposed approach can reduce the time cost of the central third party server.…”

An efficient real-time signal processing method for satellite laser ranging. by Jinyu Wang, Wei Zhu, Weiming Gong

“…However, the recognition rate of the single-stage Graz filtering algorithm for high-orbit satellites is less than 1%, and traditional two-stage filtering algorithms, such as polynomial fitting and iterative filtering techniques, exhibit high false and missed detection rates. These issues compromise the accuracy of laser positioning and real-time adjustments during observations. …”
