Abstract: Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), is completely independent of microwave measurement, and offers an indispensable tool for external validation of GNSS broadcast ephemeris. Currently, all satellites in the BeiDou Satellite Navigation System (BDS) are equipped with laser ranging reflector arrays enabling high-precision two way ranging measurements. Based on SLR data from BeiDou satellites collected in the period April 2013 to July 2014, the broadcast ephemeris of BDS were validated using SLR data. The approximate equation of SLR residual for the BDS GEO satellites were derived, and the SLR residual characteristic for BDS IGSO and MEO satellites under different attitude modes were analyzed. The validation results show that, the orbit error of C01, C08, C10 and C11 are 0.97 m, 0.43 m, 0.41 m and 0.41 m respectively.
