Introduction Geotextiles are defined in ASTM D4439-14 [1]: planar products which are made from polymers and are compatible with soils, rocks, land, or other geotechnical engineering materials in order to be a part of a man-made project, structure, or system [2].
Following the continuous development in geotextile application, in the engineering properties of synthetic materials, as well as in the textile material and techniques, geotextiles have been extended from traditional textiles to different kinds.

A Satellite Ephemeris Correction Calculating Algorithm Based on the Hill Differential Equation Ruibin Zhao, Bo Shao, Rui Li, Zhigang Huang, (School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100191, China) Key words: satellite navigation, satellite ephemeris correction, Hill differential equation, Kalman filter, calculating algorithm Abstract: The Hill differential equation is used to describe the change characteristic of the ephemeris prediction error in order to calculate the satellite broadcast ephemeris error and the error change rate.
The Hill differential equation method is more suitable at the master station for engineering application about the MEO, IGSO and GEO satellites.
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) defines integrity as “A measure of the trust that be placed in the correctness of the information supplied by the total system.
The Hill differential equation method is more suitable at the master station for engineering application for the MEO satellite, the IGSO satellite and the GEO satellite.
