AB  - In this paper, a novel ground station localizationalgorithm is proposed for space optical communications using ar-ray processing and a set of celestial objects of known locations inthe global coordinate system. First, the ground station estimatesthe directions of this set of celestial objects relative to its localcoordinate system using the sunlight reflected by these celestialobjects. Then, the ranges of the celestial objects and the locationand orientation of the ground station are estimated by solvingsystems of nonlinear and linear equations. The performance ofthe proposed approach is assessed through computer simulationstudies. It is shown to estimate the location and orientation ofthe ground station successfully with excellent accuracy.
