GNSS Requirements
• GNSS needs a common time system.
• Each GNSS satellite has atomic clocks.
• How about user receivers?
• The signal transmission time has to be measurable.
• Each GNSS satellite transmits a unique digital signature, which consists an
apparent random sequence, PRN Code
• A Time Reference is transmitted using the Navigation Message
• Each signal source has to be distinguishable.
• GNSS utilizes code division multiple access (CDMA) or frequency division
multiple access (FDMA).
• The position of each signal source must be known.
• Each satellite sends its orbit data using the Navigation Message
• Orbit Data: Almanac and Ephemeris
Slide : 8
Characteristics of GNSS Signals
• GNSS Signals have basically three types of signals
• Carrier Signal
• PRN Code (C/A Code)
• Navigation Data
• All GNSS Signals except GLONASS are based on CDMA
• Only GLONASS use FDMA
• Future Signals of GLONASS will also use CDMA
• The modulation scheme of GNSS signals
• BPSK CDMA: Code Division Multiple Access
FDMA: Frequency Division Multiple Access
• Various versions of BOC BPSK : Binary Phase Shift Keying
BOC: Binary Offset Carrier

Characteristics of PRN Code
Auto-correlation: Only four values: Cross-correlation: Only three values:

1023, 1, 63 or 65 (Ideal case) 1, 63 or 65 (Ideal Case)
• PRN codes are very uniquely designed.
• Maximum Cross-correlation Value is -23dB.
• GPS and other GNSS use CDMA
• One PRN code is assigned to one satellite. • If any signal above this power enters a GPS receiver, it
• In case of GPS, PRN code is 1023 bits long. will totally block all GPS signals.
• GLONASS is different. It uses FDMA. The same code for all • If longer PRN code is used, receiver becomes more
satellites but different frequencies. resistive to Jamming signal
• Some new signals of GLONASS also uses CDMA signals • But, signal processing is more complex
Slide : 11
GPS Signal Power: How Strong or How Weak?
• GPS satellites are about 22,000km away
• Transmit power is about 30W
• This power when received at the receiver is
reduced by 1016 times. 30Watt
• The power reduces by 1/distance2

• This is similar to seeing a 30W bulb 22,000Km far
• GPS signals in the receiver is about 10-16 Watt,
which is below the thermal noise
10-16 Watt
Slide : 12
GPS Signal Power: How Strong or How Weak?
• GPS Signal Power at Receiver
• -130dBm or -160dBW
• Thermal Noise Power
• Defined by kTeffB, where
• K = 1.380658e-23JK-1, Boltzman Constant
• Teff = 362.95, for Room temperature in Kelvin at 290
• Teff is effective Temperature based on Frii’s formula
• B = 2.046MHz, Signal bandwidth
• Thermal Noise Power = -110dBm for 2MHz bandwidth
• If Bandwidth is narrow, 50Hz
• Noise Power = -156dBm

PRN (Pseudo Random Noise) Code
• PRN Code is a sequence of randomly distributed zeros and ones that is one millisecond
long.
• This random distribution follows a specific code generation pattern called Gold Code.
• There are 1023 zeros or ones in one millisecond.
• Each GPS satellite transmits a unique PRN Code.
• GPS receiver identifies satellites by its unique PRN code or ID.
• It is continually repeated every millisecond and serves for signal transit time measurement.
• The receiver can measure where the PRN code terminated or repeated.

BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying)
Phase shift keying is a digital modulation scheme that conveys
data by changing, or modulating, the phase of the carrier
wave. BPSK uses two phases which are separated by a half
cycle.

Navigation Data
• Navigation Data or Message is a continuous stream of digital
data transmitted at 50 bit per second. Each satellite
broadcasts the following information to users.
• Its own highly accurate orbit and clock correction (ephemeris)
• Approximate orbital correction for all other satellites (almanac)
• System health, etc.

Carrier phase (1/2)
• PRN repeats every 1ms, which corresponds 300 km in distance at the
speed of light, but pseudorange accuracy is about 1 m.
• Carrier phase provides millimeter range accuracy, but repeats every
cycle, which correspond 19 cm in distance at a GPS signal carrier
frequency of 1575.42 MHz.

Slide : 28
Carrier phase (2/2)
• Fractional carrier phase of the received signal
• Therefore there is an unknown integer number of full carrier
cycles between the satellite and the receiver

unknown number of full carrier cycles are resolved

History of GPS (1/2)
• Originally designed for military applications at the height of the Cold
War in the 1960s, with inspiration coming from the launch of the
Soviet spacecraft Sputnik in 1957.
• Transit was the first satellite system launched by the United States
and tested by the US Navy in 1960.
• Just five satellites orbiting the earth allowed ships to fix their position on the
seas once every hour.
• GPS developed quickly for military purposes thereafter with a total of
11 “Block” satellites being launched between 1978 and 1985.
• The Reagan Administration in the US had the incentive to open up
GPS for civilian applications in 1983.

(with an accuracy of 10m)
Slide : 31
History of GPS (2/2)
• Upgrading the GPS was delayed by NASA space shuttle
Challenger disaster in 1989 and it was not until 1989 that the
first Block II satellites were launched.
• By the summer of 1993, the US launched the 24th GPS
satellite into orbit, which complete the modern GPS
constellation of satellites.
• In 1995, it was declared fully operational.
• Today’s GPS constellation has 31 active satellites.
• GPS is used for applications that require position and time
data.
