Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for estimating the location of a satellite terminal. The terminal is selected from among a plurality of terminals, and one or more position estimates are generated for a satellite which provides service to the terminal. The position estimated can be generated, for example, by performing a first one or more iterative grid searches over a plurality of potential position estimates for the satellite. A location estimate is subsequently generated for the terminal by performing a second one or more iterative grid searches over a plurality of potential location estimates for the terminal.
