ABSTRACT:
A method and a system for the acquisition and tracking of BOC(m,n) modulated codes, m
equal to an integer, in which a correlation function is calculated of the BOC(m,n) modulated code received from a remote transmitter with a code walocally generated at a receiver terminal according to one from the following the relationships:in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?wa(τ)=c(τn)−a·[prn(τn+Tc/2)−prn(τn−Tc/2)]in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?wa(τ)=c(τn)−a·[prn(τn+nTc/2m)−prn(τn−nTc/2m)]in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?wa(τ)=c(τn)−a·[prn(τn+nTc/4m)+prn(τn−nTc/4m)]in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?wa(τ)=c(τn)−a·[prn(τn+3nTc/4m)+prn(τn−3nTc/4m)]in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?w(τ)=[prn(τn+nTc/4m)+prn(τn−nTc/4m)]in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?w(τ)=[prn(τn+nTc/2m)−prn(τn−nTc/2m)]in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?wherein c(τ) is a local replica of the BOC modulated pseudo-random noise code with delay τn, PRN(τ) is a replica of the unmodulated pseudo-random noise code, and a is a predetermined weight coefficient, andthe correlation function being at the base of an acquisition test function whereby a code acquisition is recognized for a value of the test function being higher than a predetermined threshold.
