Use and Protection of GPS Sidelobe Signals for Enhanced Navigation Performance in High Earth Orbit

TL;DR: Proposed changes to the GPS system SSV requirements are presented, as informed by data from recent experiments in the SSV and new mission applications that are enabled by GPS navigation in HEO/GEO regimes.

The Case for Narrowband Receivers

R. Eric Phelts, +1 more
TL;DR: A case is made for narrowband receivers by describing their interference rejection advantages, and greater robustness against the effects of evil waveforms, and it is suggested that it may be possible to attain both high multipath performance and reject interference in narrow band receivers.

Fine-grained acoustic positioning with compensation of CDMA interference

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the application of signal processing algorithms that cancel Multiple Access (MAI) and Intersymbol (ISI) Interference effects manages to eliminate most of the TOF outliers, and, as a consequence, the system can nearly replicate the TDMA positioning accuracy in CDMA operation, with the advantage of higher position update rates.

Energy-Aware Time Synchronization in Wireless Sensor Networks

TL;DR: A time synchronization algorithm for wireless sensor networks that aims to conserve sensor battery power by using a hybrid algorithm derived from the timing-sync protocol for sensor networks and the reference broadcast synchronization method to periodically synchronize sensor clocks by minimizing energy consumption.

Estimation of Satellite-User Ranges Through GNSS Code Phase Measurements

TL;DR: A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver is able to compute the user position through a trilateration procedure, which includes the measure of the distance between the receiver and a set of satellites.
