             In these scenarios,      the  distance  between  two  satellites  is  always  changing.  However,  the
         changes vary depending on the type of satellites. For example, In GRACE, this changing is minimal and is
         the main factor for calculating of gravity anomaly. But in Helix, this change takes place in three directions
         and can reach far more than 100 km.

             3.2.Maule earthquake

             Therefore, the impact  of the direction of the fault on detection of  coseismic  signals  supposed that
         another earthquake occurred in Maule position with exactly the same specifications but with hypothetical
         strike angle of 90 degrees. The difference in degree obtained was as a result of satellite track almost along
         the perpendicular fault direction. The characteristics of earthquakes used for simulation in this paper are
         shown in Table 2 below.
