Null Steering GPS Array in the Presence of Mutual Coupling
A null steering GPS antenna array is designed in this paper. In the proposed method, the exact full wave antenna radiation properties with the effect of mutual couplings and nearby scatterers are considered to calculate the array steering vector, precisely. Although the proposed method is not constrained by the array geometry and the antenna element specifications, a five patch antenna elements...
متن کاملEvaluation of Relative GPS Timing Under Jamming Conditions
In this paper the performance of GPS timing under jamming conditions is evaluated in the context of a GPS jammer localization system that uses the TimeDifference-Of-Arrival (TDOA) technique. To investigate the performance of GPS timing receivers under jamming conditions, jammer signals of different types and powers were combined with real GPS signals and input into two timing receivers and the ...
متن کاملFully automatic taxiing, takeoff and landing of a UAV based on a single-antenna GNSS receiver
This paper presents fully automatic control of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from taxiing and takeoff to landing based on a single-antenna GPS receiver. In this paper, inertial sensors such as gyros and accelerometers are not used at all to show the full potential of a single-antenna GPS receiver based attitude determination system. DGPS is implemented to give high accuracy position informat...
متن کاملMiniaturized Gps Antenna Array Technology and Predicted Anti-jam Performance
NAVSYS has developed a miniaturized GPS antenna array technology that reduces the size of the antenna elements and the array dimensions. This technology enables GPS controlled reception pattern antenna arrays (CRPAs) with anti-jamming capability to be installed on vehicles where their size has previously prohibited their use. This includes aircraft where size and weight constraints resulted in ...
متن کاملA New Vision-Based and GPS-Signal-Independent Approach in Jamming Detection and UAV Absolute Positioning Assessment
The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) positioning in the outdoor environment is usually done by the Global Positioning System (GPS). Due to the low power of the GPS signal at the earth surface, its performance disrupted in the contaminated environments with the jamming attacks. The UAV positioning and its accuracy using GPS will be degraded in the jamming attacks. A positioning error about tens of...
