Sigma-Point Kalman Filter Algorithm in the Problem of GNSS Signal Parameters Estimation in Non-Coherent Tracking Mode in Spacecraft Autonomous Navigation Equipment

Resumo

The paper presents a multiloop system for noncoherent tracking of the radionavigation parameters of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals in autonomous satellite navigation system. Comparative analysis of accuracies of traditional tracking system with discriminators and filter in the tracking loop and the proposed system without discriminators is conducted. RMS errors of estimates, pull-in range and the probability of signal acquisition are studied under various SNR values. Experimental tests of derived noncoherent tracking loop are performed.
