Abstract :
A novel ground positioning method with combined Doppler measurements and received signal strength indication (RSSI) is proposed. This method provides an insight of how to achieve a real-time ground positioning with moderate accuracy with a single LEO satellite. Simulation results indicate that the proposed methodology is feasible, although accuracy limited.
