Description

The receiver rapidly starting-up in the GPS and the method for location
Technical field
The present invention relates to global positioning satellite and field of navigation systems, relate in particular at the integrated satellite-signal that receives and follow the tracks of in the receiver (receiver baseband processing chip) of catching fast.
Background technology
Global positioning satellite and navigational system, for example GPS (GPS) comprises one group of satellite constellation (the Navstar satellite is otherwise known as) that sends gps signal, this gps signal can be received the position that machine is used for determining this receiver.Satellite orbit is arranged in a plurality of planes, so that any on earth position can both receive this kind signal from least four satellites.More typical situation is that most on earth places can both receive this kind signal from six above satellites.
The gps signal that each gps satellite transmitted all is a direct sequence expansion signal frequently.The signal of commercial use is relevant with standard setting service (SPS), and is referred to as the direct sequence two-phase spread signal of thick sign indicating number (C/A sign indicating number), under the carrier wave of 1575.42MHz, has the speed of per second 1.023 million chips.Pseudo noise (PN) sequence length is 1023 chips, corresponding to 1 millisecond time cycle.The PN sign indicating number that each satellites transmits is different (Gold sign indicating number) makes signal to send simultaneously from several satellites, and received simultaneously by a receiver, and is almost noiseless each other.Term " satellite asterisk " is relevant with this PN sign indicating number, can be in order to indicate different gps satellites.
The modulation signal of GPS is the combinational code of navigation message (the D sign indicating number is otherwise known as) and PN sign indicating number.The speed of navigation message is per second 50 bits.The base unit of D sign indicating number is the prime frame of one 1500 bit, and prime frame is divided into the subframe of 5 300 bits again.Wherein subframe one has comprised identification code, star kind data length of time, satellite clock corrected parameter information.Subframe two and subframe three have comprised real-time gps satellite ephemeris (ephemeris), and ephemeris is the main content of current navigator fix information.Subframe four and subframe five have comprised the health status of 1-32 satellite, the almanac (alamanc) of UTC calibration information and ionospheric corrections parameter and 1-32 satellite.Almanac is the simplified subset of satellite ephemeris parameter.Broadcasted once in its per 12.5 minutes, the life-span is a week, can extend to 2 months.
One of main target of GPS receiver is to determine the time of arrival of PN sign indicating number.Term " between the GPS arrival " refers to that gps satellite PN sign indicating number arrives the time of GPS receiver.This is by with (each received signal) this real estate: the PN reference signal of giving birth to compares with the signal of reception and " slip " local reference is finished until aliging in time with received signal.By being referred to as multiplying each other and integral process of " being correlated with ", these two signals are compared mutually.When two signals were alignment in time, the result of output was maximum.If do once such comparison in the time of every half-chip, in a PN epoch, need finish 2046 comparisons of search so.Must all carry out such search to determine which satellite in sight to all satellites.In addition, the error of received signal frequency (this deviation is to be caused with respect to the Doppler effect that receiver motion produces by satellite) often requires search that the various hypothesis of signal frequency are added.In other words, this search procedure need be got fixed three unknown quantitys by search: visible satellite asterisk, the code phase of the carrier frequency of this satellite and PN sign indicating number.Search procedure takes the parallel mode of extensive correlator to quicken acquisition procedure at commercialization receiver (baseband processing chip) usually.Yet such search and acquisition procedure are still very time-consuming.Cross large-scale parallel correlator simultaneously and also can cause many negative issues such as increasing considerably of power consumption and cost.
Term " GPS start-up time " is one of important indicator of weighing GPS baseband processing chip performance.GPS comprises warm start time, startup temperature time and cold start-up time start-up time.Term " start-up time " is meant that the GPS receiver is from power on to exporting the mistiming of positioning result first.Term " warm start time " is meant the start-up time under known users position and gps satellite ephemeris situation.Term " startup temperature time " is meant in the known users position, the start-up time of user time and gps satellite almanac.Term " cold start-up time " is meant the start-up time in no any prior imformation.
Usually the GPS baseband chip needs could normally to locate by down a series of processes under the prerequisite without any prior imformation: at first enter the trapped state search of satellite, this process comprises the visible frequency of defending asterisk and this satellites transmits information of search subscriber.In case search available satellite, then change tracking mode over to by a frequency pulling process, make the frequency of receiver consistent with the gps satellite of catching with code phase.Under tracking mode, receiver can the demodulation carrier information obtains the ephemeris and the almanac information of GPS broadcasting, calculates gps satellite time of arrival simultaneously.After obtaining above-mentioned information, receiver can calculate receiver location.Such process chronic usually (>2 minutes), GPS user often expects higher toggle speed.
Under a lot of situations, receiver starts with its last operation (referring to calculate positioning result) some correlativity, and these correlativitys comprise: when receiver starts the position of the last operation of the position at place and receiver be more or less the same (for example less than 15 kms); When receiver starts and receiver last working time less at interval (to warm start less than 10 seconds, for startup temperature less than 2 months).Under these prerequisites, GPS can obtain a series of prior imformations, thus can by each in mode improve greatly and start and locating speed, Here it is so-called warm start and startup temperature.
Hot start method is at the short at interval situation of receiver reboot time.Under this situation, still within view probability was very big after the satellite that the last operation of receiver is in tracking mode was restarted, and frequency deviation changes not quite, had only the deviation ratio of 1 hertz of per second usually.With this benchmark, then can predict asterisk, the signal frequency deviation of restarting the back visible satellite in known unused time and reboot time as prediction.Pseudo-Random Noise Code code phase during in addition because of known shutdown, the code phase after can extrapolatedly restarting.Because ephemeris is known, in its term of validity, promptly can resolve customer location again as long as calculate the ephemeris of time of arrival (toa) utilization storage.But simple warm start has some shortcoming: for example, the satellite that last operation is in tracking mode may have only several, and a large amount of channel resources are wasted after the warm start, in case the while prediction of failure, Ding Wei time may be very long once more.How to improve the important research direction that warm start time of receiver and startup temperature time are the GPS Base-Band Processing.

The heat of mixing that Fig. 3 has described a preferred embodiment of the present invention starts flow process.The present invention proposes the hot start method that a cover is simple and reliable, can catch and can resolve fast receiver location fast, simultaneously the startup temperature method is fused in the warm start under the ordinary meaning, formed unique heat of mixing Starting mode, improve the prediction hit rate, do not increased extra hardware simultaneously.Wherein, term " warm start satellite " is meant the visible satellite by hot start method (the warm start part in the heat of mixing startup) prediction.Term " startup temperature satellite " is meant the visible satellite by startup temperature method (startup temperature part and single startup temperature in the heat of mixing startup) prediction.
Detailed process is as follows: receiver at first carries out initialization 301 after triggering heat of mixing startup, reads the prior imformation 302 of storage immediately.These information comprise: the current working time when restarting from the real-time clock receiver (second time), UTC time (very first time), position, the speed of the last operation of receiver, satellite almanac, receiver are in tracking mode when moving at last and ephemeris receives complete satellite asterisk, frequency deviation, code phase, carrier-to-noise ratio and ephemeris.Wherein the prior imformation that partly need determine of warm start is: UTC time (very first time), the satellite asterisk that is in tracking mode, Doppler frequency deviation and the PN sign indicating number code phase of the current working time when restarting from the real-time clock receiver (second time), the last operation of receiver; The prior imformation that startup temperature partly need be determined is: the current working time when restarting from the real-time clock receiver (second time), receiver location and speed, almanac; The prior imformation that quick localization part need be determined is: receiver is in the asterisk of the satellite of tracking mode when moving for the last time, and ephemeris.The storing process of these information will be explained in Fig. 6 in detail.Further, calculate the poor of the very first time and second time, the warm start part that is used for mixing startup is particularly in order to calculate warm start satellite PN sign indicating number code phase.
Afterwards, choose warm start satellite 303 as foundation, choose four satellites in the present embodiment and be used for warm start, because four minimum requirements that satellite promptly can be realized locating with the estimation of carrier-to-noise ratio.Certainly can choose more warm start satellite in other embodiments.Wherein carrier-to-noise ratio is to estimate by following formula, realizes in acquisition procedure.
WBP k = ( Σ i = 1 M ( I i 2 + Q i 2 ) ) k
NBP k = ( Σ i = 1 M I i ) k 2 + ( Σ i = 1 M Q i ) k 2
NP k = NBP k WBP k

The elevation angle of the relative receiver of satellite is greater than being visible on zero this satellite theory of explanation, thus with it as the visible condition of satellite.Further, because the relative user of the satellite elevation angle is 40 when spending, the maximum (see figure 5) of the gps signal power that receives, so the difference to each satellite elevation angle and 40 degree sorts, choose the less satellite of difference and search for as target satellite, the difference at the elevation angle when promptly utilizing the elevation angle of the relative receiver of satellite and received power maximum is as the standard of choosing the prediction satellite.Follow Doppler frequency deviation for these satellites simultaneously and generate optimum separately frequency search space 308 according to its prediction.
Deduction and the identical satellite 309 of warm start prediction satellite from the formation of startup temperature prediction guarantee that two kinds of methods do not have the prediction satellite that repeats afterwards.If warm start prediction satellite is identical with startup temperature prediction satellite asterisk, then preferentially use warm start prediction satellite.Frequency deviation and each passage 310 of code phase search space initialization with prediction.Enter with Fig. 1 and similarly resolve process.At first enter acquisition procedure 311, if acquisition success 313 then enter frequency pulling state 314, otherwise would reenter trapped state 311.Whether successful, if success then enters tracking mode 315, otherwise reenter trapped state through changing an asterisk of not searching for as yet 312 of defending if detecting frequency pulling.Enter and promptly can calculate gps signal time of arrival 317 after following the tracks of, needed prior imformation 318 when record starts next time simultaneously.This process of obtaining prior imformation will describe in detail in Fig. 6.Detect the satellite ephemeris that is in tracking mode subsequently and whether finish receiving 319.In the time of if not, demodulation text 320, detect whether the satellite of being followed the tracks of is the satellite 321 of warm start prediction.If the satellite of being followed the tracks of is a satellite that warm start is predicted, promptly its ephemeris has been stored and known, then directly uses the ephemeris 322 of storage, promptly can realize resolving fast receiver location.Otherwise, then use the ephemeris 323 that demodulates to calculate the old satellite that satellite position replaces storage.Behind the ephemeris after heat opens the satellite demodulation complete 319, promptly use the ephemeris that demodulates to resolve satellite position, simultaneously the ephemeris of updated stored.If can use greater than four satellites, can calculate receiver location 325.Reenter afterwards and catch, carry out resolving of a new round.
Fig. 4 has described the relation at the relative receiver with satellite of the received power elevation angle of gps signal.Among the figure, the elevation angle of the relative receiver of visible satellite is when the 40 degree left and right sides, and the gps signal power that receiver receives has maximal value, and at the zenith of relative receiver and the received power at place, local horizon minimum value is arranged.
Fig. 5 has described the frequency search space pattern based on prediction Doppler of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.F among the figure is the satellite Doppler frequency deviation that Figure 33 06 step is predicted.Δ is the step-length unit of frequency search.Step-size in search in the present embodiment is variable, is the integral multiple of Δ.Step-size in search is an initial point with the frequency deviation of prediction, and positive and negative both direction progressively amplifies, and keeps this step-length constant until the maximal value that reaches step-length (for example 5 Δs) back.The maximal value of this step-length is by the result after the maximum frequency driving power of FLL and the frequency speed of convergence balance, and a representative value is 500 hertz.Whole frequency search space covers the issuable maximum doppler frequency deviation range of satellite-signal.This scope is that-5 KHz arrive+5 KHz at low dynamic receiver typical range, and typical range is that-10 KHz are to+10 KHz for high dynamic receiver.By using this search volume, can realize that promptly the frequency range around the predicted frequency offset is used short step length searching, use long step length searching in frequency range away from predicted frequency offset, also promptly realize the effect that the distance between step-size in search and search frequency and the predicted frequency offset is inversely proportional to.
Fig. 6 has described the prior imformation Stored Procedure of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.All warm starts, startup temperature all are based on prior imformation.These prior imformations must be upgraded in suitable and store, to guarantee that restarting these canned datas of back all is the preceding up-to-date information of characterization system shutdown.Receiver enters after the tracking mode 601, promptly can depository in the satellite asterisk of tracking mode, Doppler frequency deviation and code phase 602, and can calculate and store carrier-to-noise ratio 603.The satellite that enters tracking mode promptly can begin demodulation text 604, promptly can store ephemeris and almanac 606 behind text complete 605.The UTC calibration information of this moment is complete, can utilize these information to calculate the UTC time and it is stored 607 by gps time, can upgrade real-time clock 608 with this time simultaneously.This conversion method from gps time to the UTC time has had complete description at Interface Control Document (ICD-GPS-200) P145-P148.When effective satellite during more than or equal to 4, promptly can calculate receiver location 609, can store receiver location and speed 610.So far, the process of once resolving finishes, and can resolve from catching a beginning new round.
Although method and apparatus of the present invention is described with reference to gps satellite, should be appreciated that these principles are equally applicable to adopt the positioning system of the combination of pseudo-satelite (pseudolites) or satellite and pseudo-satelite.Pseudo-satelite is a kind of transmitter based on ground, and it is propagated and is modulated at L frequency range PN sign indicating number (similar to gps signal) on the ripple signal, and normally synchronous with gps time.Each transmitter can be endowed the PN sign indicating number of a uniqueness, thereby allows to be discerned by remote receiver.Pseudo-satelite is with under these circumstances, that is, and and from the gps signal disappearance of orbiter, as tunnel, mine, buildings or other closed area and obviously block.Here employed term " satellite " comprises the equivalence of pseudo-satelite or pseudo-satelite, and employed here term gps signal comprises the signal from the similar GPS of pseudo-satelite or pseudo-satelite equivalence.
In the discussion in front, the present invention describes with reference to american global positioning system (GPS).Yet, should be appreciated that these methods are equally applicable to similar global position system, as Muscovite GLONASS (Glonass) system, the Big Dipper 1 and the Big Dipper 2 systems of Galileo (Galileo) system in Europe and China.Employed term " GPS " also comprises some global position systems like this, as Muscovite GLONASS (Glonass) system, and the Big Dipper 1 and the Big Dipper 2 systems of Galileo (Galileo) system in Europe and China.Term " gps signal " comprises the signal from other global position systems.
