摘要:
Determination of a signal loss profile relative to a receiver based on measured signal power of a sounding signal from a sounding transmitter having a known signal power in free space relative to the receiver. The signal loss profile may include a plurality of signal loss values corresponding to a plurality of received sounding signals at the receiver. In an embodiment, the sounding signal may comprise a GNSS navigational signal (e.g., a GPS signal). The signal loss profile may be used to extrapolate signal loss for a transmitter collocated with the receiver. In turn, the signal loss profile may be used in conjunction with a shared spectrum system to model a signal propagation from the collocated transmitter when determining allocation of a shared spectrum resource of the shared spectrum system.

An approach to joint processing of GNSS signals to determine a receiver location and common mode bias associated with grouped records corresponding to GNSS signals. In this regard, a receiver may acquire signals from a GNSS space vehicle over a relatively long period of time. In turn, records corresponding to received signals may be stored and grouped. The grouping of records may be based on assumptions of a common-mode bias for certain records (e.g., records acquired within a given duration of an observation time period). Upon acquisition of a suitable number of records, an over-determined system may be established that is used in iterative processing to solve for location and/or bias values associated with the respective common-mode bias for each group of records. As such, improved receiver performance may be realized.
摘要:
A GNSS cooperative receiver system that can be utilized when one or more GNSS receivers is in a compromised position where it cannot receive direct signals from a sufficient number of GNSS satellites. This may in the interior of an office building or multi-dwelling unit, which may be in the vicinity of other tall buildings. The receivers determine their relative positions from one of various ranging techniques, and then with this relative position information, pseudoranges, and correlation values from the various GNSS receivers, the best GNSS solution can be determined for the group of cooperative receivers. This could include two or more receivers in a group. There also related techniques for one receiver to be a designated, remote anchor for other GNSS receivers that need such assistance.
