Zusammenfassung: | 1. Field of the Invention
Disclosed is a system and method for increasing the weak signal recovery capability of a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver correlating each of the plurality of digital signals by multiplying the I and Q phases by the carrier and code, adding a location offset, accumulating the results of the correlation, and latching the results until a predetermined time; coherent combining the accumulated results at the predetermined time; non-coherent combining the coherent combined results for a time period sufficient to raise a correlation peak to a predetermined point above a noise floor to produce a plurality of non-coherent bin observables; determining a maximum value of the plurality of bin observables and comparing the maximum value to predetermined threshold; determining grid locations of bin observables having maximum values greater than the predetermined threshold; determining a bi-quadratic surface using the grid locations; determining an argument maximum of the bi-quadratic surface; estimating epoch pseudorange and Doppler variables based on the argument maximum; estimating errors in at least one of position, velocity, orientation, user clock, frequency, and ionosphere states on the estimated epoch pseudorange and Doppler variables; and determining at least one of position, velocity and orientation by correcting for the estimated errors. |
