  • UNIVERSITY of CALGARY New Enhanced Sensitivity Detection
    UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY New Enhanced Sensitivity Detection Techniques for GPS L1 C/A and Modernized Signal Acquisition by Surendran K. Shanmugam A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT OF GEOMATICS ENGINEERING CALGARY, ALBERTA January, 2008 c Surendran K. Shanmugam 2008 ISBN: 978-0-494-38222-6 Abstract Throughout history, there has been a constant effort to master the art of navigation for its importance in trade and commerce. Even today, this pursuit of better navigation is still active for its continual impact in various fields. In the last decade, the navigation field witnessed drastic changes with the advent of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) in the form of the global positioning system (GPS). This decade is currently witnessing the expansion of its scope far beyond its traditional focus. On the other hand, these expansions has brought upon new challenges to the current GPS system that were never encountered before. Hence, the legacy GPS system is expected to overcome some stern impediments inherent to these new applications for its continual dominance. For instance, massive signal attenuation, radio frequency interference (RFI) and multipath readily represents, the axis of evil, in the view point of GPS operations as applied to these new applications. More specifically, massive signal attenuation and RFI conditions poses a grave difficulty in terms of traditional GPS operations. Subsequently, one has to resort to enhanced sensitivity GPS receivers for successful GPS operations under these adverse signal conditions. A number of detection algorithms have been utilized to permit successful GPS operations under degraded signal environments.

  • User Guide for Egnos Application Developers
    USER GUIDE FOR EGNOS APPLICATION DEVELOPERS ED 2.0, 15/12/2011 Preface After more than 10 years of development and qualification efforts bringing together actors from across the European continent, including project teams, industrial teams, and operators, for the first time Europe has at its disposal a GNSS infrastructure which delivers, on a permanent basis and according to international civil aviation standards, a satellite navigation service covering much of the continent. For all space sector participants, it is extremely gratifying to see a programme having origina- ted in research and development leaving the space agency sphere and entering into the world of services addressed at a vast community of users. After telecommunications, meteorology, oceanography, search and rescue and Earth observation, we are now seeing the emergence of a new area of operational space activity, which clearly illustrates the unique and essential contribution space can make to citizens. The success of a development activity is a crucial step on the way to the success of a pro- gramme. For it to become a total success, efforts must now focus on ensuring that users, in all application areas, can obtain easy access to services, making those services straightforward to use and, of course, on guaranteeing quality of service over time. This guide is designed to acquaint the user with the system and to provide the essential tech- nical information that users and application developers require if they are to make the best possible use of EGNOS. CNES, the European Space Agency and the European Commission are proud to have contri- buted to the development of the EGNOS system, and thank all participants in this effort, both public and industrial, for their contributions to and support for the programme.

These challenges occur from end to end of for the eventual constellation [5]. Still to come are third the receiver – from the antenna to the positioning software. civilian signals on both GPS L5 (1.17645 GHz) [6] and Glonass.

They are characterised by their carrier, spreading code Satellite Systems (GNSS). and (in the case of Galileo) offset carrier (discussed in more detail below). GPS and Galileo use CDMA, i.e. a single With such a wide variety of new signals, receiver carrier spread by different codes, and Glonass uses FDMA, designers find that there are many new design questions, not several carriers spread by a single code.

Off-the-shelf systems such as ‘Spot Satellite Messenger’ are not compliant for E911 and other emergency response requirements. Despite considerable research and engineering efforts, few techniques have demonstrated promising results. Multiple sensor-based techniques and systems based on Assisted-GNSS (AGNSS) have been proposed in order to improve the performance of stand-alone GNSS.

  • High-Sensitivity GPS - the Low Cost Future of GNSS ?!
    High-Sensitivity GPS - the Low Cost Future of GNSS ?! Volker SCHWIEGER, Germany Key words: GPS, GNSS, High-Sensitivity GPS, Low Cost GNSS SUMMARY In general it has to be distinguished between GPS receivers and evaluation techniques used by surveyors, and the mass market solutions. Main difference is the accuracy that can be reached. During the last years two developments have taken place that may change the attitude of a surveyor regarding this separation. On the one hand research and implementation regarding use of low cost GPS receivers for geodetic purpose is on the way. In future this may lead to a merger of these two application fields. On the other hand the mass market gets more interesting as a working field for surveyors. The latter is connected with the catch words wireless-assisted GPS and more recently high-sensitivity GPS. These new technologies allow to establish a higher availability of GNSS signals in urban canyons or even indoor. An overview about these technologies is given in this paper as well as an insight into the respective market. The paper deals with quality characteristics like availability and accuracy of high sensitivity GPS receivers as well as navigation receivers. Recent results obtained at University Stuttgart are presented. As expected availability increases, but accuracy is reduced, if low quality signals are tracked. Additionally the possibilities for the geodetic community to reach “geodetic” accuracies are outlined based on new results using low cost receivers. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Im Allgemeinen ist zwischen hochgenauen GPS Empfängern und Auswertetechniken und den Massenmarktlösungen zu unterscheiden; insbesondere aufgrund der erreichbaren Genauigkeit.
