Abstract:
A signal processing system for demodulating navigation bits from a satellite signal is disclosed herein. The signal processing system includes a digital baseband processor for determining a boundary between two navigation bits in the navigation bits according to a first plurality of coarse acquisition (C/A) codes captured from the satellite signals, storing the first plurality of C/A codes, and demodulating a second plurality of C/A codes captured after determining the boundary to recover a first series of the navigation bits. The signal processing system further includes a complementary demodulating unit coupled to the digital baseband processor for demodulating the first plurality of C/A codes to recover a second series of the navigation bits.
Abstract:
This invention relates to the use of axial substituted phthalocyanine compound as a semiconductor layer between the source/drain electrodes of organic thin-film transistor. The centre ligand of the axial substituted phthalocyanine compound is an atom with 3 valences or higher, and the axial ligands are chlorine, fluorine, or oxygen which can be connected with the centre ligands of axial substituted phthalocyanine compounds. Crystalline Film with high quality can be prepared on an organic substrate from the axial substituted phthalocyanine compound using vapor deposition process. These crystalline films have high carrier mobility, rich energy level, and stable performances and are easy for integrated process. The field effect mobility and the on/off Ratio of the organic thin-film transistor are 0.01 cm2/Vs or more and higher than 105, respectively.
Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting lock status of a spread spectrum signal, having a first accumulator, a first calculation unit, a second calculation unit, a second accumulator, a multiplier and a comparator. The first accumulator accumulates an in-phase integration result and a quadrature integration result over a time period. The first calculation unit determines a first evaluation value based on the accumulated in-phase integration result and the accumulated quadrature integration result. The second calculation unit processes the in-phase integration result and the quadrature integration result. The second accumulator accumulates the output of the second calculation unit over the time period. The multiplier determines a second evaluation value by multiplying the accumulated result from the second accumulator with a predetermined value. The comparator compares the first and second evaluation results wherein the comparison result is an indicator of the lock status.

Abstract:
A navigation system for detecting error on Doppler frequencies of a plurality of satellite signals measured by the navigation system is disclosed herein. The navigation system includes an offset calculator for calculating offsets of the Doppler frequencies of the satellite signals during a predetermined time period and calculating an average value of the offsets. The navigation system further includes an error detecting unit coupled to the offset calculator. The error detecting unit compares the offsets of the Doppler frequencies of the satellite signals with the average value of the offsets and determines whether the satellite signals are unavailable according to corresponding comparison results.
Abstract:
An apparatus for processing spread spectrum signals is disclosed. The apparatus includes an intermediate frequency (IF) signal preprocessing unit, which includes a first set of multiply-accumulator (MAC) units and a second set of MAC units. The IF signal preprocessing unit generates a first and a second set of data streams using a digitized signal and a first and second local reference signals respectively. Each data stream is generated every predetermined time period, and each data stream includes pre-integration results generated at a predetermined rate.
