Navigational cosGBOC Signals in Promising Satellite Radio-Navigation Systems

Аннотация

The formation and structure of the modulation function (MF) of cosine generalized binary offset carrier (cosGBOC) signals applied in promising satellite radio-navigation systems, such as Galileo (European Union), global positioning system (GPS) (USA), and BeiDou/Compass (China), are discussed. Analytical expressions for the spectral density and energy spectrum characterizing the single components of cosGBOC-signal MFs are derived at the different values of pulse multiplicity coefficients N_R (N_R=2, 4, 6, …) and duty cycles ρ (ρ ∈ [0, 1]). The obtained general formulas for cosGBOC signals are employed to analyze spectra in the important particular cases of cosGBOC and BPSK signals. With the help of the Mathcad software package, the graphs of the energy spectra of the single components entering into the cosGBOC-signal MF are constructed for the following types of modulation: cosGBOC(1, 1, ρ), cosGBOC(2, 2, ρ), and cosGBOC(10, 5, ρ). The properties of the given energy spectra are investigated.
