Abstract:

The observation results of the first satellite of the Global Positioning System Ⅲ (GPS Ⅲ) show that its constellation diagram has the characteristic of non-constant envelope. At present, there is little research on non-constant envelope signals in China, and its advantages are not fully utilized in the design of satellite navigation signals. In order to study the performance of non-constant envelope signal after channel distortion, this paper simulates the constant envelope signal and non-constant envelope signal, and constructs the transmission channel phase distortion model, then evaluates and analyzes the signal quality after the simulated signal passes through the distortion model, and finally gives the measured signal results for verification. The research results show that the ranging performance of non-constant envelope signal is better than that of constant envelope signal under the influence of phase distortion.

Key words: satellite navigation signal, non-constant envelope, phase distortion, signal quality assessment
