Description

GNSS carrier tracking method based on Doppler residual estimation and receiver
Technical Field
The invention relates to a GNSS carrier tracking method based on Doppler residual estimation and a receiver.
Background
The satellite navigation positioning technology has basically replaced the ground-based radio navigation, the traditional geodetic survey and the astronomical survey navigation positioning technology at present, and promotes the brand new development of the field of geodetic survey and navigation positioning. Nowadays, the GNSS system is not only an infrastructure of national safety and economy, but also an important mark for embodying the status of modernized big countries and the national comprehensive strength. Due to the important significance in politics, economy, military and other aspects, the major military countries and the economic bodies in the world compete to develop independent and autonomous satellite navigation systems.
The gnss (global Navigation Satellite system) refers to four global Navigation positioning systems including the us GPS, russian GLONASS, Galileo in europe and Beidou in our country, and can provide uninterrupted and high-precision global Navigation signal resources for users, thereby realizing all-weather real-time positioning, speed measurement and time service functions. The GNSS is widely applied to various fields such as navigation, surveying and mapping, disaster monitoring and scientific research at present, and along with the continuous improvement and development of the GNSS technology, the receiver or the processing chip is expected to break through the limits of cost, power consumption, size and the like, and can be assembled on intelligent terminals such as various foundation air-based space bases and the like, so that the development of positioning technologies such as automatic driving, unmanned aerial vehicles and space vehicles can be greatly promoted. In these application scenarios, signals are often degraded due to the dynamics of users, the openness of signal propagation, and the complexity of the receiving environment, which seriously damages the service performance of the GNSS, such as availability, reliability, continuity, and the like.
The concrete expression is as follows: 1. for a carrier moving at a high speed, the signal frequency is influenced by the Doppler effect and changes rapidly, and a conventional tracking algorithm cannot track the dynamic change of a signal in time, so that the receiver is easy to lose lock; 2. in urban areas with high buildings, dense trees and serious electromagnetic radiation pollution, GNSS signals are easily influenced by shielding, multipath, interference and the like to cause signal energy attenuation and phase distortion, and the tracking measurement error and even the positioning interruption of a receiver caused by the signal energy attenuation and the phase distortion are increased; 3. the GNSS signal is an open transmission channel from a satellite transmitting end to a user receiving end, and the influence of atmosphere such as ionosphere troposphere and the like in the GNSS signal can cause time-varying and random delay and flicker of the GNSS signal and influence the normal work of a receiver.
GNSS signal tracking in complex environments is a challenge and difficulty currently encountered by all receivers. With the increasing demands on positioning accuracy and coverage of applications such as mobile internet based on location services, the contradiction between the high GNSS dependency of users and receiver robustness becomes more prominent. In order to improve the robustness and reliability of the receiver, it is necessary to adopt an advanced tracking algorithm to improve the dynamic adaptation range, the interference resistance and the like of the receiver.
Disclosure of Invention
The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to overcome the defects of poor adaptability and low anti-interference capability of a receiver tracking algorithm to dynamic signals in the prior art, provide an adaptability cavity to the dynamic signals, and effectively improve the tracking robustness of GNSS reception in a high dynamic scene.
The invention solves the technical problems through the following technical scheme:

The nature of the tracking loop vulnerability cannot still be changed. The method using doppler residual estimation is essentially the concept of doppler assistance for each individual tracking channel using the positioning information of multiple satellite channels. If the signals of the channels track normally, the original Doppler estimate and the positioning Doppler estimate of each channel should be consistent, and the residual error is small. When a single tracking channel is affected by interference and tracking is unstable, the original Doppler estimation of the channel is detected through the information of positioning Doppler, if the error is large, the Doppler of the interference channel can be pulled back to a normal level, which is equivalent to an assistance of other normal satellite channels to the fault channel.
