Some Improvements on Relativistic Positioning Systems

Abstract

We make some considerations about Relativistic Positioning Systems (RPS). Four satellites are needed to position a user. First of all we define the main concepts. Errors should be taken into account. Errors depend on the Jacobian transformation matrix. Its Jacobian is proportional to the tetrahedron volume whose vertexes are the four tips of the receiver-satellite unit vectors. If the four satellites are seen by the user on a circumference in the sky, then, the Jacobian and the tetrahedron volume vanish. The users we consider are spacecraft. Spacecraft to be positioned cannot be close to a null Jacobian satellites-user configuration. These regions have to be avoided choosing an appropriate set of four satellites which are not seen too close to the same circumference in the sky. Errors also increase as the user spacecraft separates from the emission satellite region, since the tetrahedron volume decreases.We propose a method to autonomously potion a user-spacecraft which can test our method. This positioning should be compared with those obtained by current methods. Finally, a proposal to position a user-spacecraft moving far from Earth, with suitable devices (autonomous), is presented.

The Influence of Trading Volume, Market Trend, and Monetary Policy on Characteristics of the Chinese Stock Exchange: An Econophysics Perspective

“…We also found that this periodic pattern remains unchanged. It shows that the one-minute stock price fluctuation is deeply affected by the volatility of the stock price at the same time in the previous period, while it's not just the effect of the intraday model [22][23][24]. Therefore, the research perspective of investors should not only be limited to the closing price and open price of the stock market, but should also explore the intrinsic properties of the high-frequency data and make investment decisions with the the cyclical law of autocorrelation.…”

“…GC condition: quartz capillary column was 30 mm × 0.25 mm × 0.25 μm, started at 50 °C, then followed by a rate of 8 °C/min up to 250 °C, finally reached 300 °C at a rate of 5 °C/min. The temperature of the inlet was 250 °C, column flow was 1.0 mL/min, split ratio was 20:1, and the carrier gas was high-pure helium [20,21].…”
