This study introduces a novel swept anti-jamming technique for Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. The method effectively suppresses jamming signals, ensuring continuous and accurate positioning even under interference.
Area of Science:
- Navigation Systems
- Signal Processing
- Electromagnetic Interference
Background:
- Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers are increasingly vital for numerous applications.
- GPS signals are susceptible to jamming due to their low power, operating below the noise floor.
- Jamming degrades the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), disrupting essential GPS-based services.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a reliable and accurate swept anti-jamming technique for GPS receivers.
- To efficiently suppress GPS swept jamming signals using high-resolution spectral analysis.
- To ensure continuous and accurate positioning during jamming events.
Main Methods:
- Utilized Frequency Offset Spectrum (FOS) method for accurate spectral estimation of jamming signals.
- Implemented a swept anti-jamming technique integrated into GPS receiver signal processing.
- Conducted experiments using the Spirent GSS6700 simulation system for controlled validation.
Main Results:
- The proposed method successfully detected, estimated, and suppressed GPS swept jamming signals.
- The anti-jamming module enabled continuous positioning solutions during jamming.
- Achieved a positioning accuracy of within 10 meters despite jamming interference.
Conclusions:
- The developed swept anti-jamming technique offers an effective solution for GPS signal interference.
- High-resolution spectral analysis, specifically FOS, is crucial for accurate jamming signal estimation.
- The research validates the capability of the proposed method to maintain reliable GPS positioning under jamming conditions.
