  • Abstract
    In this paper, a regional positioning system using three geosynchronous Turksat satellites is explained. A time code signal is transmitted via three satellites to the user at the Earth, while the user calculates the latitude and longitude position coordinates from the time difference of arrivals of the signals from the satellites. The attitude information is assumed to be measured by the user.
