EE 6073 - Navigation Receiver Design

Theoretical development of receiver design with emphasis on spread spectrum ranging. Topics include: link budgets, antenna considerations, low-noise amplifiers, radio-frequency processing, down-conversion and intermediate frequency processing, in-phase and quadrature components, noise figure calculations, bandpass sampling, direct-sequence spread spectrum acquisition and tracking, theory and operation of numerically controlled oscillators and tracking loops, pseudorange and carrier-phase measurement generation. Heavy emphasis on processing of real data in MATLAB®.
