Resource Overview

This code simulates GPS L1 signal acquisition by generating C/A codes and associated pseudo-codes, then modulating them with carrier signals. The simulation includes spectral analysis of the generated signal, frequency offset incorporation, and correlation processing using known PN codes to determine code phase initiation and frequency offset parameters through cross-correlation algorithms.

Detailed Documentation

This code implements GPS L1 signal acquisition simulation. The implementation begins with generating Coarse/Acquisition (C/A) codes and corresponding pseudo-random noise (PRN) sequences using predefined code generators. These baseband signals are then modulated with carrier waveforms through multiplication operations. The spectral characteristics of the simulated signal are analyzed and visualized using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithms. Frequency offsets are intentionally introduced to simulate real-world conditions, where correlation techniques between the simulated signal and local replica PN codes are applied to determine precise code phase initiation points and frequency deviations through peak detection algorithms. Additional features like signal attenuation modeling and multipath interference simulation can be integrated to enhance the complexity and realism of the GPS receiver simulation environment.
