Abstract :
We proposed an iterative algorithm for radio sources coordinates estimating by the range-difference method using the multiposition passive satellite system. We simulated the coordinates estimating algorithm. We defined requirements to the satellite orbit altitude and to the distance between the satellites for the small satellites group. We estimated time of arrival estimation accuracy, which is necessary to achieve the required coordinates estimation accuracy.
