The COMPASS Space Segment will consist of a constellation of 35 satellites, which include 5 geostationary orbit (GEO) satellites and 30 non-GSO satellites. The system is currently under development evolving from a regional system called BeiDou-1, and in the first phase will provide global navigation services by 2020, similarly to the GPS, GLONASS or Galileo systems.
COMPASS Space Segment
The COMPASS Space Segment will consist of a constellation of 35 satellites, which include 5 geostationary orbit (GEO) satellites and 30 non-GSO satellites; 27 in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) and 3 in Inclined Geosynchronous Orbit (IGSO), w5th a worldwide coverage.[1][2]
The system is to be deployed in two stages; the launches for the first phase will be completed by 2012[3] and will consist of 14 satellites aiming at the Asia-Pacific region,[1] followed by the deployment of the global system by 2020.[3]
As of December 2011, ten Compass satellites have been successfully launched. The first eight of which completed the deployment foreseen for the first phase of BeiDou-2.[3][1][4] Also in December 2011, the COMPASS system went into operation on a trial basis providing initial passive positioning navigation and timing services for the whole Asia-Pacific region with a constellation of 10 satellites (5 GEO satellites and 5 IGSO satellites)[5][2]. During 2012, the system is going to launch another 6 satellites[1][5].

The nominal constellation includes 35 satellites, 5 GEOs, 3 IGSOs and 27 MEOs. The number of IGSO orbits is 3, with one IGSO per plane. The intersection node is 118E. The MEOs are deployed as a Walker constellation; 24 MEOs in 3 planes plus 3 spares. The orbital parameters of the final constellation are shown in the following table:[1]
| Orbit parmts. | GEO | IGSO | MEO |
|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-Major Axis (Km) | 42164 | 42164 | 27878 |
| Eccentricity | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Inclination (deg) | 0 | 55 | 55 |
| RAAN (deg) | 158.75E, 180E, 210.5E, 240E,260E | 218E,98E,338E | -- |
| Argument Perigee | 0 | 0 | |
| Mean anomaly (deg) | 0 | 218E:0,98E:120,338E:240 | |
