【 摘 要 】

GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems), long used by spacecraft in low Earth orbits, is now being used operationally by geostationary spacecraft. That use is expected to expand in the near future and even into higher orbits, thanks to work by the ICG (International Committee on Global Navigation Satellite Systems)and the service providers to formalize the GNSS Space Service Volume. Recent research has shown that GNSS navigation is possible even in lunar orbit, where it can benefit human and robotic exploration activities. This talk will focus on these emerging high-altitude applications of GNSS in cislunar space.
