Embodiment approach 1

[0021] According to the present invention, the back-end correlation fast Fourier transform can also work together with the time-domain correlation operation. Figure 4 A schematic diagram showing the correlation computing system of the GNSS receiver according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 Components of the GNSS receiver before the correlator 110 , such as the antenna connected thereto, the RF front-end and the Doppler removal unit, are omitted for clarity and brevity. see together figure 2 , in this embodiment, the receiver has a correlator 110 in the time domain, and the correlator 110 uses each hypothetical local PRN code replica delay form (version) to perform a correlation operation on the input data stream in a time-division multiplexing manner to obtain the following Terminal-related data (step S60), the data stream has been down-converted and digitized as is well known in the art. The correlation results of each hypothesis are accumulat...

Abstract

A correlation system for a GNSS receiver uses an FFT engine to perform correlation and post-FFT operation. The FFT engine executes FFT operation to an input data stream so as to generate a frequency-domain correlation with frequency-domain C / A code and IFFT operation to the frequency-domain correlation result to generate post correlation data for each hypothesis, and executes FFT operation to the post correlation data of a selected hypothesis to generate a post-correlation FFT result in a programmable TDM manner. In the present invention, in addition to the FFT engine, some basic components are shared by a correlation stage and a post-correlation stage. Therefore, hardware complexity can be reduced and good performance of the receiver is maintained.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a global navigation satellite system (Global Navigation Satellite System, GNSS) receiver, in particular to a correlation calculation (correlation) system and method using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technology for the GNSS receiver. Background technique [0002] The Fast Fourier Transform is a well-known technique for processing digital signals and has been used in satellite communications, such as the Global Navigation Satellite System. For GNSS receivers, Time to First Fix (TTFT) has always been a critical issue for users. Time to first fix usually refers to the time it takes to find at least 4 satellites during 3D positioning. In order to improve time-to-first-fix efficiency, it is undesirable to acquire satellite signals with long integration times. Fast Fourier transform provides a powerful solution that can improve the speed of correlation operations and the efficiency of signal acquisition and tracking. [00...
