Navigation Accuracy and Interference Rejection for an Adaptive GPS Antenna Array
In the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS) both the differential GPS reference station and the airborne user will employ Controlled Reception Pattern Array (CRPA) antennas. In a high precision system such as JPALS, CRPA antennas may suffer phase center biases that introduce significant integrity risk. These phase center biases result from both hardware design and from algorithm ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Carrier Phase and Group Delay Biases Introduced by CRPA Hardware
The benefits afforded by Controlled Reception Pattern Antennas (CRPAs) in multipath and interference mitigation are well documented, and they find use in many applications today. As such, CRPAs are being considered for use in the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS) program. The Navy variant of JPALS, Sea-based JPALS, will be a dual-frequency, carrier phase, differential GPS syst...
متن کاملReal-Time Software Receiver for GPS Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna Array Processing
This paper demonstrates a real-time software receiver supporting GPS L1 C/A controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) processing. The software receiver is implemented on a widely-available recent generation multi-core processor and is capable of processing array signals from either radio frequency (RF) front-end modules or collected datasets. Most importantly, the receiver allocates dedicated...

As functional integration has increased in hand-held consumer devices features such as Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers have been embedded in increasingly more devices in recent years. For example, the train positioning system based on GPS provides an integrated positioning solution which can be used in many rail applications without a cost intensive infrastructure. The network built i...
متن کاملGPS Multipath Mitigation Using a Three Dimensional Phased Array
Digital beam steering with a phased array has previously been demonstrated to improve the Signal/Multipath (S/M) level for precision applications by providing gain in the direction of the GPS satellites. A disadvantage of using horizontal planar antenna arrays is that the beam pattern is symmetric in the Up/Down directions. This means that only the phased array ground plane affects the antenna ...
