Performance of an adaptive partitioned vector tracking algorithm with real scintillation data

Vector tracking algorithms have been used in both frequency and code tracking of GNSS signals in the last years with success. Vector phase tracking algorithms still present a challenge due to the order of magnitude of the errors when compared to the wavelength of the carrier wave, especially in situ...

Resumo:Vector tracking algorithms have been used in both frequency and code tracking of GNSS signals in the last years with success. Vector phase tracking algorithms still present a challenge due to the order of magnitude of the errors when compared to the wavelength of the carrier wave, especially in situations where strong disturbances are present in one or more satellites. Partitioned vector tracking for carrier phase signals has been used in simulation scenarios with good results. In this work the performance with real scintillation data is shown. Furthermore, an adaptive method with dynamic optimization of the weights in the partitioned vector tracking is included, in order to adjust the tracking structure to the variation of environmental parameters.
