Research on Improved Code Phase Acquisition Algorithm for BOC(pn,n) Signal

Abstract:

Auto correlation function of BOC signal has the character of milti-values, so acquistion of BOC signal can not simply transplant the algorithm of GPS signal. For this reason, parallel code phase search algorithm and cross correlation characteristics of BOC signal are analyzed. And then, the validity of parallel code phase search algorithm on BOC signal are simulated. After that, point to the insufficiency of parallel code phase search algorithm on the acquisiton of BOC signal at low SNR(signal to noise ratio), an improved acquisition algorithm is presented and used to analyze BOC signal. The results show that the improved algorithm is applicable to BOC(pn, n) signal where p is an integer, which expands the application aera of parallel code phase search algorithm; and that the improved algorithm can improve SNR of acquisition about 15dB compared with that of parallel code phase search algorithm, that is to say, the improved algorithm can enhance acquisiton sensitivity of receivers obviously, which is very important to the design of acquisiton algorithm in receivers.
