It can be useful for double-check measurements obtained with other methods, for certain critical applications, being capable to perform independently from them. This system requires three-reference bases on the surface of the earth with synchronized clocks and a repeater in space. Calculations are derived from measurements of propagation time of clock signal transmitted by one base to all bases and target, via a transponder in space. The algorithm also provides the "instantaneous" determination of the repeater position in space and brings other applications in navigation and remote clock synchronization. The algorithm has been successfully tested through computational software. %N Article Number: 79389 %T Nonrecursive algorithm for remote geolocation using ranging measurements %@secondarytype PRE PI %@archivingpolicy denypublisher allowfinaldraft %@usergroup administrator %@usergroup marciana %@group %@group %@group DMC-INPE-MCT-BR %3 kugaS1024123X06793899[1].pdf %@copyholder SID/SCD %@secondarykey INPE--PRE/ %@issn 1024-123X %@issn 1563-5147 %2 sid.inpe.br/mtc-m17@80/2008/02.11.12.18.24 %@affiliation %@affiliation %@affiliation Faculdade de Engenharia de Guaratinguet´a, Universidade Estadual de S˜ao Paulo, 012516-010 Guaratinguet´a, SP, Brazil %@affiliation Divis˜ao de Mecˆanica Espacial e Controle, Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Telecomunicac¸ ˜oes, 37540-000 Santa Rita do Sapuca´ı %B Mathematical Problems in Engineering %@versiontype publisher %4 sid.inpe.br/mtc-m17@80/2008/02.11.12.18 %@documentstage not transferred %D 2006 %V 2006 %@doi 10.1155/MPE/2006/79389 %O IDS Number: 132JO %A Kaufmann, P.
