Publication number: 20220373696Abstract: Techniques for Ultra Wide-Lane (UWL) Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) positioning a mobile device may include obtaining, using a multi-band GNSS receiver of the mobile device: a first carrier-phase measurement of a first GNSS signal on a first GNSS carrier frequency, and a second carrier-phase measurement of a second GNSS signal on second GNSS carrier frequency. Techniques may further comprise providing a position estimate of the mobile device, wherein: the position estimate is determined from a wide-lane (WL) combination of the first carrier-phase measurement and the second carrier-phase measurement, and the WL combination has a combined carrier phase noise that is less than a pseudo-range noise of the first carrier-phase measurement and a pseudo-range noise of the second carrier-phase measurement.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2021Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Min WANG, Ning LUO, Gengsheng ZHANG, Zoltan BIACS, Mangesh CHANSARKAR, Jean-Michel ROUSSEAU, Dimitri RUBIN, David TUCK, Yuxiang PENG

Publication number: 20050101346Abstract: A method and system using correlator circuitry in a GPS baseband circuit for despreading both GPS data and local wireless data. In one embodiment, an RF signal (local wireless) is received at a first frequency and a digital baseband signal is produced therefrom at a second frequency. A GPS signal is also received at the second frequency and a digital baseband signal is produced therefrom. Both baseband signals are provided to a single GPS baseband circuit for data recovery. In a GPS mode, GPS data is recovered from the baseband signal by despreading and demodulation. In a local wireless mode, the GPS baseband circuit is programmed to despread and recover local wireless data. The GPS data and the local wireless data can be stored in a data buffer for downstream processing. By sharing the correlator circuits in the GPS baseband circuit for both GPS data recovery and local wireless data recovery, a low cost receiver unit is provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 7, 2003Publication date: May 12, 2005Inventors: Steve Wozniak, Dimitri Rubin

Patent number: 6567392Abstract: In a CDMA based wireless digital communications system, a CDMA communications station. A CDMA communications station includes a signal encoder adapted to encode signaling information into a signaling packet. A voice encoder is also included to encode voice information at a variable data rate and process the voice information into a voice packet. A multiplexer is coupled to receive the voice packet from the voice encoder and coupled to receive the signaling packet from the signal encoder.
