A navigation signal based on orthogonal tiered polyphase code was proposed. For the proposed signal, tiered polyphase code was used as the code of a pilot channel. Tiered polyphase code is a complex number type code, and thus the pilot channel and data channel were separated using the Walsh code which makes the correlation between different codes become 0. The results of the simulation indicated that the correlation characteristics and signal acquisition performance of the proposed signal were identical to those of tiered polyphase code, and that the disadvantage of tiered polyphase code could be supplemented through a data channel in terms of signal tracking.

Modernized GNSS signal structures tend to use tiered codes, and all GNSSs use binary codes as secondary codes. However, recently, signals using polyphase codes such as Zadoff-Chu sequence have been proposed, and are expected to be utilized in GNSS. For example, there is Tiered Differential Polyphase Code (TDPC) using polyphase code as secondary code. In TDPC, the phase of secondary code changes every one period of the primary code and a time-variant error is added to the carrier tracking error, so carrier tracking ambiguity exists until the secondary code phase is found. Since the carrier tracking ambiguity cannot be solved using the general GNSS receiver architecture, a new receiver architecture is required. Therefore, in this paper, we describe the carrier tracking ambiguity and its cause in signal tracking, and propose a receiver structure that can solve it. In order to prove the proposed receiver structure, we provide three signal tracking results. The first is the differential decoding result (secondary code sync) using the general GNSS receiver structure and the proposed receiver structure. The second is the IQ diagram before and after multiplying the secondary code demodulation when carrier tracking ambiguity is solved using the proposed receiver structure. The third is the carrier tracking result of the legacy GPS (L1 C/A) signal and the signal using TDPC.

Signal acquisition performance is evaluated for the tiered polyphase code (TPC) which is proposed as a ranging signal structure for global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs). Compared to the tiered code (TC) which is adopted in European Union's GALILEO system, the TPC shows robust performance to frequency offset in acquiring signal. Therefore the TPC should have SNR gain in signal acquisition and can reduce computational complexity in the receiver. In this paper, we compare the signal detection probability of the TC and TPC under the same receiver architecture and GALILEO E5a-I signal parameters.

Zero Cross-correlation Zone (ZCZ) code has a good performance in Multi-user CDMA system to get low correlation zone and reject co-channel interference. In this paper, we do analysis of spreading code design to obtain this kind of property of correlations with a complex spreading scheme and denote their effective performance for mobile communication system. In addition, a Jacket polyphase sequence is an example to show the improved performance and regular properties effective performance for mobile communication system. In addition, a Jacket polyphase sequence is as an example to show the improved performance and regular properties.

In this paper, we propose a class of polyphase signature sequences, whose general odd correlation properties are useful for M-ary phase signaling systems. The maximum magnitude of the general odd correlation functions of the proposed sequences are investigated and compared with those of FZC (Frank-Zadoff-Chu) sequences and those of EOE (equivalent odd and even correlation) sequences. The performance of the asynchronous M-ary phase signaling systems using the proposed sequences is simulated and compared with that using FZC sequences in direct sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) systems. The performance of the system using the proposed sequence is shown to be better than that using FZC sequences when the multipath fading is in existence.

This paper analyzes the signal acquisition performance of the legacy GNSS spreading codes and a polyphase code. The code length and chip rate of a polyphase code are assumed to be same as those of the GPS L1 C/A and Galileo E1C codes. The autocorrelation and cross correlation characteristics are analyzed. In addition, a way to calculate a more accurate probability of false alarm for a code with sidelobe non-zero auto-correlation function is proposed. Finally, we estimate the probability of detection and the mean acquisition time for a given signal strength and the probability of false alarm.

In this paper, we propose a class of polyphase signature sequences, whose general odd correlation properties are useful for 4-phase signaling systems. The performance of the direct sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) systems using the proposed sequences is compared with that using binary pseudo-noise sequences. The performance of the system using the proposed sequence is shown to be better than that using other conventional sequences both from the worst-case analysis and bit error rate simulations.

Polyphase filtering techniques is used to suppress the narrowband jammer signal such as USDC TDMA overlaying the band occupied by DS-CDMA system. In the proposed jammer suppression, the received signal is separated into 64 subchannels in two stages by polyphase filtering and the location of the narrowband jammer signal is determined by measuring each subchannel power and the contaminated subchannels are simply blocked. The $E_{b}/N_{0}$ 0/ improvement of the CDMA system from jammer suppession was outstanding. The $E_{b}/N_{0}$ degradation in comparison with a performance of no jammer is around 0.8dB in the worst case. The results are also compared with those of linear prediction jammer suppression. The implementation of the ployphase jammer suppression requires great amount of data processing and computation compared to linear predication filter. Thus it is more appropriate to implement with a ASIC rather than WITH several DSPs for user terminals of forward link.

This paper presents a polyphase down sampling based multiple description coding applied to H.264 video coding standard. For a given macroblock, a residual macroblock is calculated by motion estimation, and before applying DCT, quantization and entrophy coding of the H.264 coding process, the polyphase down sampling is applied to the residual macroblock to code in four separate descriptions. Experiments were performed for all the 9 test sequences of JVT SVC standardization in various packet loss patterns. Experimental results show that the proposed one gives 0.5 to 5 dB enhancement over an error-concealment based on the slice group map technolgoy.
