چکیده
This application note investigates the basic theory of software-based receivers for L1-band civilian GPS applications, including a discussion of signal acquisition and tracking, and the need for bit synchronization in the receiver. It then details a low-cost method for adding GPS capability to laptop PCs through a USB dongle with the MAX2769 universal GPS receiver. A similar version of this article was featured in Maxim's Engineering Journal, vol. 63 (PDF, 1.3MB).

Portable GPS Baseband Logging
We present the design and implementation of a highly portable multi-antenna datalogging system which can log several minutes of multi-channel raw GPS L1 baseband. In addition, our design interleaves two serial data streams with the baseband data, allowing, e.g., inertial data to remain synchronized with the data stream. The system is FPGAbased and uses two CompactFlash cards for storage. The da...

GPS Receivers are used for both military and civilian applications. This paper presents the GPS Receiver for System on Chip (SoC) application. In this paper the GPS Receiver is been implemented as System on Chip in FPGA board. VHDL modeling for the back end of GPS Receiver is designed. As baseband signal processing is the main aspect in the GPS receiver, it is achieved by this software GPS Rece...
متن کاملThe Namuru Receiver as Development Platform for Spaceborne Gnss Applications
GPS is a well established navigation system in current spaceflight missions. Affordable GPS receivers for small satellite and sounding rocket missions are usually based on Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) products. Many of these receivers are limited to single frequency tracking and utilise custom ASICs for the signal processing. The Phoenix receiver is an example of a commercially available rec...
متن کاملNext Generation Software-based GPS Receiver for Real-World Applications
This paper introduces a next generation software-based GPS receiver technology that is capable of providing meters level accuracy, independent raw measurements and PVT (position, velocity, time) solutions using as little as 1-2ms (millisecond) of I/Q samples. This unprecedented performance is based on a revolutionary patent pending technology called Deep-RTM. Unlike conventional software based ...
متن کاملFPGA based GPS receiver design considerations
A project to build a GPS receiver using an FPGA for base-band processing began in 2004. The new receiver platform uses a commonly available RF front end ASIC to convert the GPS signals to a suitable IF. The digital design for baseband processing is normally a reasonably straight forward task. However, because the received GPS signals are at such low levels this presents some challenges. One of ...
