Analysis of the Effects Power-Inversion (PI) Adaptive Algorithm Have on GNSS Received Pseudorange Measurement

Power inversion algorithms (PI) are widely used by ant-jamming receivers in harsh environment, but it also induces pseudo-range measurement error which is fatal to high precision receivers. In this paper, it proposes a more accurate method based on the S Curve Bias (SCB) to evaluate the pseudo-range bias which can actually affect the positioning results, as it excludes a fixed time delay contained in the directly differing method. When using this method to assess the bias, it is found that pseudo-range errors can be influenced by many factors including the type of interference. Simulation as well as experiment based on a 4-element array antenna are designed and carried out. The simulation has shown that both SOP-PI and STAP-PI will bring bias to pseudo-range measurement. Specifically, the maximum bias caused by SOP-PI is 1m while the bias caused by STAP-PI is up to 10m. Moreover, comparing to the method which directly differs the pseudo-range of output signal and the reference signal, the method proposed in this paper has better performance. Furthermore, the experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed evaluating method.
