摘要: An assisted satellite positioning system based on detecting signals from a number of satellites includes: (a) a mobile receiver; and (b) a base station communicating with the receiver over a low-power wireless communication network, the base station providing ephemeris data of a selected number of the satellites, but not all, using a compressed data format. The ephemeris data may include data concerning doppler frequency variations or elevation variations of the selected satellites over a predetermined time interval. The doppler frequency variations and the elevation variations may be represented in the compressed format by coefficients of a polynomial function of time. The polynomial function may be weighted to have lesser relative errors in larger doppler frequencies than lesser doppler frequencies, or to have lesser relative errors in lesser elevations than larger elevations. In one implementation, the low-power wireless communication network—such as a LoRa network—that has a range of at least 10 miles.

摘要: A position-determining apparatus, such as a GPS receiver, determines the position of the mobile device based on the time of flight of a transmitted probe signal using a method in which sections of the received signal is classified into two or more categories and accumulated according to categories before being used to compute the correlations familiar in the context of a matched filter. Using the method of the present invention to compute the correlations, and optionally applying additional time-saving techniques described herein, a position determination is achieved using arithmetic operations that are significantly reduced from that required in prior art methods to compute the correlations. The reduced number of arithmetic operations can reduce significantly the power consumption required of a device carrying out a method of the present invention, and thereby realizing a significant advantage.
