Measuring method for pseudo code delay of spread spectrum signal with high dynamic range and low signal-to-noise ratio

Abstract

The invention discloses a measuring method for pseudo code delay of a spread spectrum signal with high dynamic range and low signal-to-noise ratio. A spread spectrum receiver is used for performing ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) sampling on an intermediate frequency analog signal; the intermediate frequency analog signal is subjected to digital downconversion to obtain a baseband complex signal r(k)=I(k)+jQ(k); the baseband complex signal is simultaneously outputted to a pseudo code capturing unit, a carrier and pseudo code closed-loop tracking unit and a pseudo code time delay open-loop estimation unit; the carrier and pseudo code closed-loop tracking unit is used for tracking carrier frequency and pseudo code phase according to the captured doppler frequency and pseudo code phase information; a pseudo code time delay measuring pulse is used for outputting the doppler frequency and the pseudo code phase information to the pseudo code time delay open-loop estimation unit and outputting the pseudo code phase information to a pseudo code time delay calculation unit; the pseudo code time delay calculation unit is used for correcting closed-loop tracking measurement data of the pseudo time delay by using the open-loop estimation result and realizing quick high-precision measurement of the pseudo time delay. By the adoption of the method, the quick high-precision measurement of the pseudo time delay in the complex environment can be realized.

Problems solved by technology

On the one hand, high dynamics and low signal-to-noise ratio bring great challenges to the carrier tracking of spread spectrum signals

On the other hand, the measurement accuracy and speed of pseudo-code delay are a pair of mutually restrictive factors. The smaller the bandwidth of the DLL loop, the higher the measurement accuracy of pseudo-code delay, and the long...
