Frequency-domain windowing for precision position, navigation, and timing (PNT) estimation

摘要

Systems and methods for mitigating multipath effects on precision PNT estimation are disclosed. Frequency-domain windowing techniques are disclosed and utilized to mitigate multipath effects on precision PNT estimation for systems employing coherent communication signals. More specifically, to mitigate multipath effects an input signal, the input signal may be channelized into a plurality of carrier-specific signals, and each carrier-specific signal may be correlated against a reference signal to produce a corresponding carrier-specific correlation result. A window function may be applied to the carrier-specific correlation results for the plurality of carriers to produce a set of carrier-specific weighted correlation results. The set of carrier-specific weighted correlation results may be integrated to produce an integrated correlation output, which may then be utilized to facilitate PNT estimation.
