Introduction to Global Positioning System

45
The Global Positioning System (GPS) revolutionized positioning on Earth, providing precise location data through satellite ranging. The GPS system was developed in 1978 by the U.S. Department of Defense  for military use, and it became available for civilian applications in 1983, transforming fields including navigation, fleet management, and time synchronization for telecommunications systems.GPS consists of satellites in medium Earth orbit, about 20,200 kilometers above the surface,...

Area of Science:

  • Quantum communication networks
  • Satellite network engineering
  • Quantum information science

Background:

  • Classical optical fibers are limited to urban areas for quantum communication.
  • A Quantum Satellite Backbone (QSB) is proposed to overcome distance limitations.

  • To evaluate the performance of the proposed QSB system.

Main Methods:

  • Designed an ad hoc QSB architecture incorporating DT and SDN principles.
  • Developed and implemented a DT monitoring protocol for network status.
  • Evaluated system performance through path monitoring, configuration time, E2E entanglement establishment time, and fidelity between Ground Stations (GSs).

Main Results:

  • The DT-SDN integrated QSB architecture facilitates efficient network management.
  • The DT monitoring protocol enables rapid status recovery for reliable E2E entanglement.
  • Performance evaluation demonstrated effective path monitoring, configuration, and entanglement establishment.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed QSB design effectively overcomes the limitations of optical fibers for quantum communication.
  • The integration of Digital Twin and Software-Defined Networking is crucial for managing dynamic satellite quantum networks.
  • This approach enables robust and efficient creation of End-to-End entanglement states for a future Quantum Internet.
