Abstract:
1. A method for generating avoidance data, the method comprising: receiving, in an avoidance data generator, information about: an object, and a capability of a platform, the object being in space, the avoidance data generator identifying minimum strip dimensions via receiving an unprocessed movement vector for the object and computing a satellite perturbation vector uncertainty along an object movement vector over time, forming a propagated position; generating, using the avoidance data generator, strips for a path of the object; positioning the strips relative to the path of the object, such that the strips comprise parameters, based on the information about the object and the capability of the platform, that: obscure an identification of the path of the object, make a location of the object unidentifiable, and form the avoidance data; sending the avoidance data at jittered time intervals to the platform; and determining, using the avoidance data generator, if a first strip and a second strip are within a connectivity range of each other; changing an angular distance of the connectivity range; comparing a physical property of the first strip and a physical property of the second strip to a physical property of strips previously transmitted by the avoidance data generator to the platform; changing the first strip due to the physical property of the first strip being within a range of the physical property of strips previously transmitted by the avoidance data generator to the platform; changing the second strip due to the physical property of the second strip being within the range of the physical property of strips previously transmitted by the avoidance data generator to the platform; and sending a changed strip to the platform.
