Satellite navigation receiver with fixed point sigma rho filter

Abstract:

A multi-band satellite navigation receiver for carrier and code tracking using a fixed point sigma rho filter with improved stability is described. The receiver simplifies and speeds up the data processing in the filter to adaptively accommodate common information from aggregate bands and obtain the accurate position of the receiver in real time. The filter may utilize a standard deviation function and a cross correlation function while determining adaptive scale factors to ensure that the filter is stable and reliable.
