Abstract
An apparatus and digital signal processing means are disclosed to reliably and rapidly receive and detect navigation signals, e.g., Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals, such as Global Position System (GPS) L1 legacy, L1C, and L5 signals, using combinations of spatially diverse antenna arrays, polarization-diverse antenna arrays, frequency-channelized analysis filters, and perfect-reconstruction synthesis filters, by exploiting features of those signals that are self-coherent over known framing intervals. Among other advantages, the means can reliably and rapidly identify navigation signals based on those features, improve their quality ahead of, or during, signal despreading operations, and detect and excise inadvertent or targeted electronic attack (EA) measures, e.g., navigation signal spoofers, and narrowband or wideband jamming and co-channel interference. In one aspect, the interference excision is performed in an appliqué that can be implemented without coordination with a navigation receiver.
