Abstract

Aiming at the complex dynamic changes of inter-satellite link signals, this paper proposes a low-complexity method to calculate dynamic parameters of inter-satellite link signals so as to simulate inter-satellite link signals with complex dynamic characteristics. Based on the precise ephemeris, the algorithm is used to calculate the transmission delay and Doppler frequency of the signals in an inertial frame of reference by using iteration and interpolation. The calculation result is compared with the result obtained by using the simulation software of the global navigation system. It is found that the error of the transmission delay is at the nanosecond level and the error of Doppler frequency is at the Hertzian level. Therefore, the dynamic signal simulation accuracy can meet the requirements of load testing and verification of inter-satellite links. The algorithm is simple to implement.
