Abstract
In this paper, we propose an efficient estimation algorithm to find unknown location of an earth station for a geostationary satellite system. A cross ambiguity function (CAF), using time difference of arrival (TDOA) and frequency difference arrival (FDOA), is usually used to estimate the unknown location of an unauthorized earth station which may invoke interference to the existing satellite systems. However, a practical estimation of the location data requires tremendous computational time of CAF, and this prohibits direct utilization of CAF. For this reason, we propose a computationally efficient algorithm which utilizes characteristics of TDOA and FDOA within CAF. The proposed algorithm greatly enhances the computational efficiency without any performance degradation. In addition, we demonstrate the simulation results on the estimation performance by the resolution of the CAF estimation. The results provided in this paper will be utilized at the real system implementation.
