Abstract

An electromagnetic transmission carrying a bauded signal, such as a transmission from an orbiting satellite, is processed for Doppler shift analysis. The electromagnetic transmission is captured and a non-linear operation is performed to expose a cyclostationary feature of the captured transmission that defines a rate-line having a rate-line frequency that is related to the bauded signal and to the motion of the transmitter relative to the receiver. The rate-line frequency is tracked in time to generate data indicative of Doppler shift associated with the satellite. The data are then supplied to a tracking receiver.
