Page 168 Ap p e n d i x B T e r m in ol og y Term Description Anti-Spoofing (AS) Is a policy of the U.S. Department of Defense by which the P-Code is encrypted (by the additional modulation of a so-called W-Code to generate a new "Y-Code"), to protect the militarily important P-Code signals from being "spoofed"...
Page 169 Binary Shift-Key (BSK) BSK is a modulation technique by which a binary message, such the Modulation Navigation Message or the PRN codes (consisting of 0's and 1's), is imprinted on the carrier wave. Unlike Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Frequency Modulation (FM), BSK Modulation does not alter the signal level (the "amplitude") or the carrier wavelength (the "frequency").
Page 170 Correlator The GPS receiver "software" or electronic means, implemented in some fashion (either analogue or digital) within a Tracking Channel, used to shift or compare the incoming signal with an internally generated signal. This operation is performed on the PRN codes, but may be used for more "exotic" mixed signals in the case of L2 measurements, where under the policy of Anti-Spoofing (AS) the L2 PRN code is not known.
Page 171 Dual Frequency Refers to the instrumentation that can make measurements on both L-Band frequencies, or to the measurements themselves (e.g., L1 and L2 pseudo-range or carrier phase measurements). Dual-frequency measurements are useful for high precision (pseudo-range-based) navigation because the Ionospheric Delay bias can be determined, and the data corrected for it.
Page 172 GPS Time (GPST) GPST is a form of Atomic Time, as is, for example, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). GPST is "steered" over the long run to keep within one microsecond of UTC. The major difference is that while "leap seconds" are inserted into the UTC time scale every 18 months or so to keep UTC approximately synchronised with the earth's rotational period (with respect to the sun), GPST has no leap seconds.
Page 173 L1 Frequency GPS carrier frequency which contains the C/A-Code, the encrypted P-Code (or Y- 1575.42MHz Code) and the Navigation Message. Commercial GPS navigation receivers can track only the L1 carrier to make pseudo-range (and sometime carrier phase and Doppler frequency) measurements. Rice Factor The ratio between the power of the direct component and the mean power of the Rayleigh faded component in Rician fading, expressed in dB.
