| Summary: | A new improved algorithm is proposed to solve the problem of GPS weak signal capture that the traditional algorithms are unavailable to capture under a weak signal environment. This algorithm is based on the analysis of double block zero padding (DBZP) algorithm and it adopts the delay-accumulation method to retain the operation results temporarily which are discarded in DBZP algorithm. Waiting for delaying 1 ms, the corresponding correlation calculation results are obtained. Then superimpose the obtained results with the operation results retained temporarily and compare the coherent accumulation results with the threshold value. The data measurements are increased by improving the utilization rate of correlation operation results in the improved algorithm on the premise of increasing little computation. Simulation results showed that the improved algorithm can improve the acquisition algorithm processing gain and it is able to capture the signals whose carrier-to-noise ratio(C/N0) is 17 dB-Hz and the detection probability can achieve to 91%. |
