摘要： A mobile terminal (UE) comprises means (CR) for acquiring pseudo-random codes modulating signals received from positioning satellites (SN) in view belonging to a constellation (CS) and related to a reference time, and computation means (MC1-MC3) for determining its position received from the acquired codes and from navigation data contained in the signals. The acquisition means (CR), on receiving assistance data representing an approximate reference time and the approximate position of the terminal (UE), determine estimated positions of the satellites, estimated distances between the terminal and each of the satellites in view and associated Doppler effects as a function of pairs of hypotheses relating to the approximate reference time and the approximate position, and then determine a signal replica for each pair of hypotheses corresponding to the estimated positions and distances and to the associated Doppler effects over a selected time interval, and select the pair of hypotheses corresponding to the signal replica having the maximum correlation with the signal received during the time interval in order to determine the pseudo-random codes modulating the received signals.

摘要： A method for detecting the distortion of a GNSS signal transmitted by at least one GNSS satellite and received by at least one GNSS receiver is disclosed, where the distortion is caused by a GNSS signal generation defect. Initially, at least one autoregressive parametric model of the GNSS signal is determined at the output of a correlation stage of the GNSS receiver. Next, at least one linear prediction error e(n) between the output signal of the correlation stage and the autoregressive parametric model is computed. The linear prediction error is compared to a detection threshold and the distortion of the transmitted GNSS signal is decided when the linear prediction error exceeds the detection threshold.
