Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) SELENE (Selenological and Engineering Explorer) is a Japan’s lunar probe which was launched and injected into the lunar polar orbit in 2007. The Main Orbiter of SELENE named Kaguya has separated the Relay Satellite: Rstar (Okina). We have executed four-way Doppler measurements which determined the orbit of Kaguya aviating above the lunar far side.
The ground station up-links ranging signals, and the relay satellite transponder on Rstar (RSAT-1) relays the carrier waves to Kaguya. Then the transponder on Kaguya (RSAT-2) receives the signals and returns to Rstar, and down-linked to UDSC. Thus, our system has achieved the first case to track two fully moving links between the lunar orbiters and carried out Doppler measurements.
