FFT Splitting for Improved FPGA-Based Acquisition of GNSS Signals

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Jérôme Leclère

With modern global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals, the FFT-based parallel code search acquisition must handle the frequent sign transitions due to the data or the secondary code. There is a straightforward solution to this problem, which consis ...
