An apparatus includes an antenna, RF path, Analog to Digital convertor (ADC), filter, and navigation channel for processing a received GNSS signal based on a navigation clock. A communication modem is configured to receive the signal via a first antenna, RF path, and ADC and process the received signal in order to generate a signal based on a modem clock. The communication modem is further configured to transmit the signal based on the modem clock using a R+1 antenna via a R+1 RF path and a Digital to Analog Convertor (DAC). A multichannel synchronous signal analysis system (MSSAS) receives outputs of the ADCs and processes them using a plurality of decimators and plurality data receivers. Each of the decimators is configured to process the outputs of the ADCs and output data to one of a plurality of data receivers. A CPU is configured to control all of the devices.

Multichannel synchronous analysis system for analyzing global navigation satellite system signals and methods of signal processing

Method of demodulation of M-CPFSK signal, includes receiving the M-CPFSK radio signal; moving it to zero frequency; sampling at no less than double a frequency of symbols; storing the samples with their amplitude and phase for at least L4 symbols; demodulating the sampled signal in three stages, wherein each stage includes iterating over symbol values within a block of symbols, of length is L1, L2 and then L3; in the first stage, N1 symbol sequences out of all possible symbol sequences are iterated over, at the second stage, N2 symbol sequences out of all possible symbol sequences are iterated over, and at the third stage, N3 symbol sequences out of all possible symbol sequences are iterated over, to obtain final symbol values; symbol values obtained at previous stage is used in a next stage to reduce a number of symbol sequences; and determining encoded bits based on final symbol values.

Method and apparatus for receiving FSK signals

An apparatus for forming wideband pseudo random noise signals includes a set of channels each comprising an NCO having a controlled frequency and phase and a PRN code generator, the NCO generating a strobe that is output to the PRN code generator. The PRN code generator forms a new sequence element of +1 or −1 in response to the strobe. The apparatus also comprises a first modulator having a plurality of weight coefficients, a plurality of multipliers each multiplying one of the weight coefficients, an adder outputting a sum of the plurality of multipliers output signals, and a mixer with a quadrature output signal multiplying the adder's output by sine and cosine of a low intermediate frequency. The apparatus also includes a processor controlling the set of channels, a transceiver module to receive and/or transmit quadrature signals, and an interface connecting the output of the mixer and the transceiver module.

A universal multi-channel receiver for receiving and processing signals from different navigation systems is provided. The universal receiver is implemented as an ASIC receiver with a number of universal channels. The receiver with universal channels is capable of receiving and processing signals from navigation satellites located within a direct access zone. The universal receiver has a plurality of channels that share the same memory. The universal receiver can determine its coordinates using any of the existing navigation systems (GPS, GLONASS, Beidou and GALILEO). The receiver can receive and process any (PN) signals.
