Abstract:

The newly added B1C navigation signal in the BeiDou-3 system presents challenges in the acquisition process, including prolonged code phase search time, high computational complexity of matching filter coefficients, and the multi-peak phenomenon of the autocorrelation function. To address these issues in a high dynamic scenario, a signal acquisition algorithm is utilized based on the combination of a short-term correlation matching filter and fast Fourier transform. Additionally, data folding and autocorrelation function reconstruction are applied to the B1C signal, simplifying the generation of matching filter coefficients and enabling unambiguous fast acquisition of the B1C signal. Experimental results demonstrate that, while meeting the demands of high dynamic acquisition, the computational complexity and acquisition time are significantly reduced, with a maximum increase of 32.4% in detection probability, and the maximum side lobe peak reduced by approximately 125 times. Furthermore, the minimum signal power captured by the algorithm is 1.5 dB smaller than the minimum receiving power of the antenna, and it has certain anti-thermal noise ability.
