Technical considerations are pointed out relating to geometry, accuracy of orbit prediction, choice of orbit, and of frequency, transmission or orbital parameters, and transit navigational satellites; SEREB navigational satellite is proposed which measures range by time delay between transmission of signal by satellite and its reception by observer; power requirements for SEREB are estimated at 12.5 mw, which can be obtained from 7.5 sq ft of solar cells.
