Study on the High Accuracy and Fast Acquisition of Satellite Signals Based on the Blind Source Separation Technique

To address the problems of slow acquisition speed and low accuracy faced by existing grid search-based satellite acquisition methods in complex scenarios, this study proposes a high accuracy and fast satellite signal acquisition method based on blind source separation. The proposed method first adopts wavelet threshold denoising to reduce the noise in the overlapped satellite signal received by the receiver so as to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the satellite signal. On this basis, a subspace estimation method is introduced to construct a blind acquisition algorithm for satellite signals, which achieves high accuracy and fast solution for the Doppler frequency shift and code phase shift of satellite carrier signals and is able to recover the unobservable individual source signals. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through experiments and compared against the traditional grid search type acquisition method, which confirmed that the method is suitable for the acquisition requirements of weak signals and has a good engineering application value.
