Finally, static and kinematic experiments were conducted in an urban and open-sky area, respectively, to show the usage and performance of the developed open-source GPS VT SDR.īhattacharyya S, Gebre-Egziabher D (2010) Development and validation of parametric models for vector tracking loops. The implementation of this VT code is described in detail. Users can quickly implement and evaluate their own newly developed baseband signal processing algorithms related to VT. In addition, this MATLAB code is well organized and easy to use. This baseline provides users with a tool to compare the performance of VT and CT on common ground. The GPS positioning estimator of this equivalent CT is based on an extended Kalman filter (EKF), which has exactly the same state, system, and carrier measurement models and noise tuning method as VT. To achieve this goal, we developed an “equivalent conventional tracking (CT)” SDR as a baseline to compare with VT. We developed open-source MATLAB code for GPS VT SDR to enable researchers and scientists to investigate its pros and cons in various applications and under various environments. The strengths of VT include its immunity to signal interference, its capability to mitigate multipath effects in urban areas, and its excellent performance in tracking signals under high-dynamic applications.
The research regarding global positioning system (GPS) vector tracking (VT), based on a software-defined receiver (SDR), has been increasing in recent years.
