Abstract Constellation design has great influence on the performance of satellite positioning system, the constellation should provide multi-coverage and satisfy certain geometry. First, this paper presents coverage property of satellites and DOP factors, based upon these, researches for regional satellite positioning system and relevant estimates of positioning performance are provided. Finally, the application of and some questions about regional positioning constellation are explored, and conclusion is also given.
