10 results about "Multipath mitigation" patented technology

Multipath mitigation is a term typically used in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) communications and in GNSS navigation to describe the methods that try to compensate for or cancel the effects of the Non Line Of Sight (NLOS) propagation. The multipath effect occurs when a signal is received not only through a Line of Sight (LOS) path, but also through one or several NLOS paths. The multipath, if not addressed or compensated, can significantly reduce the performance of the communication and navigation receivers. Various multipath mitigation methods can be used to estimate and remove the undesired NLOS components.

Multipath mitigation, interference cancellation and multilateration in a cellular network supporting accurate and resilient PNT services

PendingUS20250323766A1Transmission path divisionPosition fixationMultipath mitigationCarrier signal
Systems, methods, devices, and means for multipath mitigation, interference cancellation and multilateration in a cellular network supporting accurate and resilient position, navigation, and timing (PNT) services are described. The techniques described herein include operations directed to processing positioning reference signals (PRSs) to determine time of arrival (TOA) measurements for determining user equipment (UE) position in the presence of multipath noise and interferences. Example operations associated with processing PRSs includes receiving one or more PRSs in accordance with a comb pattern via resources defined by a set of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols and a set of subcarriers. The example operations include generating a single OFDM symbol comprising the set of subcarriers based on combining the set of OFDM symbols into the single OFDM symbol. The example operations further include performing a multipath mitigation operation using the single OFDM symbol.

System and method for hybrid precise point positioning and real-time kinematic position estimation with mean-field carrier multipath mitigation

PCT designated stageWO2026080921A2Satellite radio beaconingMultipath mitigationHybrid approach
The invention improves Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) accuracy using a novel hybrid approach combining Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) and Precise Point Positioning (PPP) techniques with advanced multipath mitigation. The system receives positioning data from multiple GNSS devices and uses a server-based location correction engine to process this information. It generates estimated position values and ambiguity measurements, which are then used in both RTK and PPP algorithms. The system also applies a mean-field carrier multipath mitigation technique, leveraging an ensemble solver to compute multipath-free position estimates. This approach addresses both device-specific and environmental errors, particularly benefiting consumer-grade GNSS devices. By iteratively refining position estimates and correcting for multipath effects, the system achieves high-precision positioning without relying on fixed base stations, offering centimeter-level accuracy for a wide range of applications.
