An Adaptive Transversal Filter for GNSS Receiver : Implementation and Performance Evaluation

Abstract

One-sided and two-sided ATF for GNSS receiver are deigned, implemented and evaluated in this paper. The difference of filter characteristics such as the location of zeros and the frequency response is reviewed and examined with experiments. NLMS adaptation algorithm is adopted for updating the weighting coefficients of the 12-tap FIR filter. The performance of ATF is evaluated using real signals consisting of the signals from GPS simulator and the signal generator. The output of ATF is fed into the SDR to evaluate SNR and the position accuracy. the complexity of implementation is also compared and the effects of the time delay and the phase delay are examined. the experimental results show that one-sided and two-sided ATF give similar performance against single tone CWI
