Abstract

The visibility and usability of GPS signal for space missions were analyzed. The influencing factors such as earth occultation, the free space signal attenuation, the beam width (or solid angle) of transmitting antenna, the receiver mask angle and the atmospheric attenuation were analyzed and modeled in detail. And the criterions of space visibility and usability of GPS signal in space were also given. The relative simulations were proposed for the special application background. The analysis methods, models and simulation results have special reference value for the application of GPS in the space missions.
