The design integrates a low-noise amplifier, a high-linearity mixer, and an adaptive automatic gain control mechanism within a jointly optimized RF front-end architecture, aiming to improve signal quality at the receiver input under weak-signal conditions.
Abstract
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are widely used in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and autonomous driving. However, in urban canyons and tunnels, multipath, blockage, and interference reduce SNR and degrade positioning accuracy. This paper proposes a high-SNR GNSS receiver architecture based on RF front-end optimization. The design integrates a low-noise amplifier (LNA), a high-linearity mixer, and an adaptive automatic gain control (AGC) mechanism within a jointly optimized RF front-end architecture, aiming to improve signal quality at the receiver input under weak-signal conditions. Experimental results show an SNR improvement of approximately 6 dB compared with a conventional receiver, along with improved positioning accuracy under both open-sky and weak-signal conditions.
(English) Achieving robust positioning across ground and UAV platforms remains challenging under multipath, partial satellite visibility, and rapidly changing measurement quality, especially in urban and embedded scenarios. At the same time, modern smartphones and embedded receivers increasingly provide multi-constella...
The findings support the proof-of-concept feasibility of lightweight FNN-based correction for simulated static GNSS positioning, and will focus on validation using real GNSS measurements and extension to dynamic positioning applications.

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) now underpin a wide range of positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) applications, from autonomous vehicles and precision agriculture to critical infrastructure timing and geodetic monitoring. The antenna remains a performance-limiting component in these systems: it determin...

This letter proposes a genetic algorithm-based beamforming design for integrated communication sensing and navigation (ICSN) in low-altitude scenarios. In the developed ICSN system model, communication performance is measured by the sum rate, sensing capability is evaluated through the Cramér–Rao bound (CRB) of angle e...

The new concept of air traffic control favours the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) Galileo over the classic navigation system. Practice shows that GNSSs are unreliable when operating in the presence of interference. That is why we examined the feasibility of measuring the distance between a Galileo receiver o...

A residual-guided hybrid stochastic modeling framework that adjusts the pseudo-range observations to reduce the positioning loss without requiring true pseudo-range errors, which are difficult to obtain in real-world scenarios is proposed.
