Abstract
A hybrid global coverage satellite constellation is designed based on GEO and IGSO satellite considering that GEO satellite can provide favorable coverage performance to low latitude region while IGSO satellite can achieve high elevation angle to high latitude area. The designed satellite constellation can offer double-satellite coverage to the Chinese and nearby area, high elevation angle to high latitude area and seamless coverage to global area. The simulation results show that the Chinese and nearby area can achieve 100% single-satellite coverage and 87% double-satellite coverage. Besides, global area can reach more than 95% single-satellite coverage and north pole can get communication elevation angle over 30°.
