| 20110128998 | Software Based Spread Spectrum Signal Processing - A digital processing unit for use in a spread spectrum signal receiver, the digital processing unit being adapted to receive an incoming stream of data samples and in response thereto produce a decoded signal, the digital processing unit comprising a correlation module adapted to correlate data blocks formed from the incoming stream of data samples with a local code replica segment to produce a first number of intermediate accumulation results and an aggregation module adapted to receive the first number of intermediate accumulation results and to combine the first number of consecutive ones of said intermediate accumulation results to form a target number of aggregated accumulation results, said target number being less than or equal to the first number. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20100177806 | GNSS Receiver - A GNSS receiver including a processing unit adapted to process radio signals transmitted from an active set of signal sources and based thereon produce position/time related data. The signals of the active set are processed in parallel with respect to a real-time signal data rate of the signals by a respective tracking channel resource allocated for each signal source. The processing unit also has a monitoring channel resource adapted to process radio signals transmitted from each of at least two signal sources in an additional set of signal sources different from the signal sources in the active set. The processing unit is adapted to process the radio signals of the additional set according to a cyclic processing sequence such that the signals from any of the signal sources in the additional set can be included into a navigation solution without delay. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20090002234 | Spread Spectrum Software Receiver - A spread spectrum signal receiver comprises a radio signal processing unit, at least partly implemented in software running on a processor. The processing unit determines a candidate collection of subsets of signal sources from a group of potential sources, by the criterion that an anticipated processing intensity required to derive position/time related data from that subset is equal to or less than a maximum specified processing intensity. Each subset contains at least a minimum number of signal sources necessary to produce position/time related data. The processing unit also selects a set of preferred signal sources from a candidate subset, based on a highest estimated quality of the position/time related data attainable during a subsequent operating period for the receiver without exceeding the maximum specified processing intensity. During the subsequent operating period, the receiver receives spread spectrum signals from the selected set of signal sources and produces position/time related data therefrom. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20080291979 | Method and Spread Spectrum Software Receiver for Satellite Navigation - A spread spectrum signal receiver includes a radio signal processing unit, which is at least partly implemented in software running on a processor. The processing unit is adapted to estimate a respective processing demand required to produce position/time related data based on each subset of a number of candidate subsets of signal sources among a group of potential signal sources. Each candidate subset contains at least a minimum number of signal sources, which is necessary to produce the position/time related data of a desired quality. The processing unit is adapted to select a set of preferred signal sources from the group of potential signal sources based on a candidate subset, which is associated with a lowest estimated processing demand during a subsequent receiver operating period. Then, the receiver receives spread spectrum signals from the selected set of signal sources, and based on the received signals produces position/time related data. | 11-27-2008 |
