ABSTRACT 
Digital beamforming is an effective way to improve 
gain in the direction of a transmitting GNSS satellite, and 
to null in the direction of undesired signals such as 
interference and multipath. However, the utilisation of 
multiple antennas makes the architecture and signal 
processing of GNSS receivers significantly different from 
single-antenna receivers. This paper describes a method 
of simplifying the architecture of multi-antenna GNSS 
receivers. The authors propose an alternative 
beamforming architecture utilising the maximum Signal 
to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) criterion. This 
architecture can make the beamforming processing subsystem 
a standalone module instead of being integrated 
within the tracking loop. A multi-antenna GNSS receiver 
was developed based on the Kai Borre single-antenna 
GNSS software receiver. Simulation results demonstrate 
that this architecture is effective in improving the Carrierto- 
Noise power density ratio (C/No) of the received signal, 
as well as in reducing the receiver tracking error. |
