A novel secondary code acquisition algorithm for the BDS‐3 B1C signal
Abstract The BDS‐3 recently started broadcasting a new civil B1C signal to provide open services for global users, which brings benefits to GNSS‐based applications. The BDS‐3 B1C signal modulates a long secondary code on the primary code in the pilot component, and it is useful to acquire the second...
