In the 3/sup rd/ Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) time division CDMA (TD-CDMA) has been selected as air interface for TDD (time duplexing) bands of generation (3G) mobile radio systems. case same channel impulse responses are valid both uplink and downlink. state-of-the-art TD-CDMA characterized by joint data detection (JD) this equality cannot be exploited enhancing system performance reducing complexity. A novel downlink transmission scheme is proposed. This termed (JT). It utilizes...
A especially favorable multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-based concept for future mobile radio systems consists of the application joint detection (JD) in uplink and transmission (JT) downlink. By this, all computational complex signal processing is shifted to base station (BS), resulting low-complexity stations. Both JD JT require channel knowledge at BS which, if time-division duplexing applied, can be obtained by training signal-based estimation uplink. Unfortunately, estimates are...
Array processing proved itself in the last decades as a powerful approach to suppress harmful radio frequency interference. However, interference mitigation spatial domain can also lead attenuation and loss of desired Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals that are not sufficiently separated by their directions arrival from interfering signals. In order overcome this effect, paper proposes an combine array vector tracking single receiver. Formerly, loops have been shown deliver...
<h3>Summary</h3> Camera-based visual navigation has great potential for various applications, especially in satellite-signal-degenerated environments. However, the lack of integrity protection constrained its utilization safety-critical applications. Integrity characterizes quality information that a system delivers. frameworks have been developed over decades satellite navigation, and continue to play an essential role applications like civil aviation. Nevertheless, there are several...

It utilises the knowledge of channel impulse responses at BS transmitter in such a way that receivers MSs estimators are no longer required and computational expense data detection dramatically reduced.
This paper summarizes the development of safety-of-life receivers for global navigation satellite systems. Two receiver systems have been successfully fabricated, integrated, and tested by means field experiments. Implementation issues these two are described in this paper. The third generation receiving system is based on a dual-band approach with antennas that able to separate frequency bands using outputs. Measured results show high isolation between can be achieved.
The combination of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and Inertial System (INS) has become the baseline many vehicular applications. However, in challenging GNSS scenarios, classical GNSS/INS integration estimators are very sensitive to multiple measurement faults (e.g., due multipath). In this work, we design a tightly-coupled between INS where modify update step Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) consider more robust estimators, like M-estimators. We different faulty scenarios...
This paper presents the performance analysis of signals from Galileo satellites in E1 and E5a frequency bands GPS L5 as measured by DLR's experimental ground-based augmentation system.

Furthermore, inter-frequency biases affect dual-frequency processing investigated. These differ between depend on satellite receiver hardware, but they can be determined a...
