Abstract: To establish the position of a satellite in space, direction vectors (2) and twist vectors (5) are taken as the basis, with sensor and twist data taken as the start values to determine the position. An initial vector determination is by measurement of a direction vector in a coordinate system at the body by sensors (9), and a second vector determination is taken from a reference coordinate system (8) based on the path position (11) and an orbit model (1). A third vector determination of the total twist vector is from the coordinate system at the body and a fourth vector determination of the reference total twist vector is established in a reference coordinate system through the timed propagation of known start values of the total twist or a timed projection in a matrix.

Abstract: A wireless line sharing network system enabling the charge of fees according to the use of a wireless communication network as well as reduction in capital invested by a communication carrier. A user terminal that subscribes to a communication carrier accesses a corresponding communication carrier network at a licensed radio frequency through a wireless base station (BS) and a control station (10). In response to a call connection request, a call acceptance controller (101) accepts the call and reserves bandwidth based on a radio bandwidth allocation pattern defined by contract and current use conditions. A bandwidth determination section (107) determines bandwidth for the call connection request using the call connection request, a call connection acknowledgement and a bandwidth table (106). A rate change controller (103) controls bandwidths for user terminals so that the currently used bandwidth of each communication carrier are kept within a predetermined range. An accounting controller (110) charges each communication carrier according to the radio bandwidth lease agreement.
