Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for receiving satellite radio-navigation signals comprising a plurality of receiving antennas forming an antenna array. The invention consists in using a plurality of antennas disposed around the circumference of a carrier, in demodulating the signals received by each antenna separately and then in combining the various demodulated signals, thereby amounting to effecting a beam forming in an equivalent antenna pattern. The invention then requires only a single synchronization slaving for the set of demodulation pathways.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a satellite geopositioning method on the basis of satellites each transmitting dual-frequency signals. The method comprises, for each satellite, a step of computation of four pseudo-distances on the basis of the two codes and the two carriers of the received dual-frequency geopositioning signals, a step of correction of the ionospheric delays over each computed pseudo-distance by applying an ionospheric error propagation model, a step of carrier code smoothing using a Kalman filter in order to provide a pseudo-distance measurement without measurement noise and to correct the residual ionospheric error. The position is estimated by using the corrected pseudo-distances computed for each satellite.
Abstract:
A receiver of signals likely to be disturbed by an interfering signal, the receiver includes an interference rejection filter comprising a multiplying gain applied respectively to an in-phase channel and an in-quadrature channel of a signal received by the receiver, the value of the multiplying gain being determined by a nonlinear function Ki(ρ) of the modulus ρ of the received signal, the function Ki(ρ) being determined so as to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio after application of the multiplying gain and demodulation of the received signal.
