    摘要: Method of reducing multipath effects on phase measurements, including receiving radio signals with different pseudo-random codes transmitted by at least four base stations, each at particular frequency received by one channel; measuring delay difference and phase difference from different pairs of base stations; calculating a current position of the receiver based on the measured phase differences and delay differences, wherein the base stations differ in pseudo-random codes at same frequencies or differ in carrier frequency or polarization type if using the same pseudo-random codes, and wherein a number of channels in the receiver exceeds a number of channels needed for the calculating of the current position; detecting anomalous jumps in phase of one or more channels, based on first or second derivative of the phase, as being indicative of multipath signal reception; removing those channels from calculation of current position; and calculating current position based on remaining channels.

    摘要: Method of demodulation of M-CPFSK signal, includes receiving the M-CPFSK radio signal; moving it to zero frequency; sampling at no less than double a frequency of symbols; storing the samples with their amplitude and phase for at least L4 symbols; demodulating the sampled signal in three stages, wherein each stage includes iterating over symbol values within a block of symbols, of length is L1, L2 and then L3; in the first stage, N1 symbol sequences out of all possible symbol sequences are iterated over, at the second stage, N2 symbol sequences out of all possible symbol sequences are iterated over, and at the third stage, N3 symbol sequences out of all possible symbol sequences are iterated over, to obtain final symbol values; symbol values obtained at previous stage is used in a next stage to reduce a number of symbol sequences; and determining encoded bits based on final symbol values.

    摘要: A method for receiving and processing satellite navigation signals includes receiving the navigation signals; converting the navigation signals into digital signals; providing a clock signal to all channels that process the digital signals; generating frequency division signals; selecting a channel frequency division signal from the frequency division signals based on which ADC is used to convert the satellite navigation signals into digital signals; connecting the channel to the ADC; generating code frequency signal and base carrier frequency signal using a net accumulation signal; processing the digital signal in the channel to produce digital quadrature signal components of the digital signal based on the code frequency signal and the base carrier frequency signal; using a tick signal that represents 2N×clock signal as a temporary time scale for control of the channels for determining digital signal phase differences between the channels; and outputting coordinates based on the quadrature components.
