Resumen:
This paper addresses the signal acquisition problem in the presence of interferences using antenna arrays in the general framework of Global Navigation Satellite Systems receivers. We describe and compare two different approaches: the first one is based on the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) detector directly applied on the array snapshots, and the second one uses a digital beamformer as a spatial filter to mitigate the interferences and acquire the signal using the beamformer output. We show that the array-based GLRT acquisition is equivalent to a conventional acquisition based on the output of a time reference beamformer. The test statistics of the techniques are analyzed in terms of the probability of detection and false alarm. Monte Carlo simulations using the Galileo E1 signal structure support the theoretical results, even when the array is moderately uncalibrated. © 2013 Arribas et al.; licensee Springer.
