Abstract

Global positioning system multipath estimation is important for both high precision positioning and reflection applications. The paper aims at proposing a method for estimating multipath parameters including carrier phases with good SNR adaptation performance utilizing adaptive filters. The method takes the signal after demodulation and spectrum dispreading for the desired signal. It is found to have a desired signal with relatively higher SNR so that the filtering performance is relatively better than previously proposed method; what's more, the method could estimate multipath code delay preferable to carrier phase ambiguity problem. Simulations validate the method can estimate multipath profile including amplitudes, code delay and carrier phases of direct path and multipath signals with small errors of 2% correct amplitude, smaller than one sampling interval code delay and 0.01 cycles carrier phase at 11dB SNR. The multipath mitigation performance of the method is better than that of narrow correlator.
