Abstract
This paper addresses a synchronization technique based on an adaptive combining of the sub-correlation functions obtained from multiband sine phased binary offset carrier (BOC) signals, allowing a BOC signal receiver to deal with multiband sine phased BOC signals. Specifically, we first obtain the sub-correlation functions composing the BOC autocorrelation function, and then, re-combine the sub-correlation functions generating a correlation function with no side-peak. Finally, by replacing the BOC autocorrelation with the correlation function with no side-peak in the delay lock loop, the proposed scheme performs unambiguous signal tracking. The proposed synchronization scheme is applicable to generic sine phased BOC signals. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed scheme provides a performance improvement over the conventional unambiguous schemes in terms of the tracking error standard deviation.
