Friday 13 - 16, TB223
Per 5 :

Description:

The implementation of 2010 is focused on signal processing for satellite-based positioning. At the end of this course, the student should be able to: - explain the general principles about how it is possible to extract useful information from radio signals for computing the user position. - describe the general architecture and main elements and functionalities of a satellite navigation system - analyze the significance of different transmitter and receiver signal processing modules (modulation, acquisition, tracking, front-end filtering, ...) on the accuracy of navigation solution. - present and compare various receiver architectures in terms of performance, cost and complexity - explain the challenges associated with satellite-based navigation and present solutions to cope with these challenges (e.g., Indoor location) - use Matlab to model&generate simple models of navigation systems
