Abstract
In this paper, we propose a three-stage unambiguous tracking scheme for CBOC signals. We evenly divide composite binary offset carrier (CBOC) signal, which was adopted in the Galileo system developed by the European Union (EU), by width of BOC(6,1) signal pulse, and then, generate 12 partial correlations. Then, we generate an unambiguous correlation function by recombining the partial correlations with two kinds of operation. The proposed correlation function is narrower and higher than the conventional correlation functions. From simulation result, it is shown that the proposed correlation function offers a better signal tracking performance over the conventional correlation functions.
