Preliminary analysis for the joint autonomous orbit determination of the BDS-3 MEO satellites and lunar ELFO satellites based on inter-satellite links

Abstract A fundamental limitation of Autonomous Orbit Determination (AOD) for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) constellations using Inter-Satellite Links (ISLs) is the inherent unobservability of the overall rotational bias, leading to continuous degradation of orbit de...
