  • Systems and methods for monitoring broadband radio frequency interference
    Patent number: 9297904
    Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring broadband radio frequency interference are provided. In certain embodiments, a method comprises calculating a smoothed carrier to noise value for a received signal on a processing unit, wherein the received signal is associated with a receiver and at least one satellite; calculating an average jammer power to noise power value for the receiver; calculating an instantaneous carrier to noise value for the received signal based on the average jammer power to noise power value and the smoothed carrier to noise value; comparing the instantaneous carrier to noise value to an exclusion threshold, and determining whether to exclude the received signal from calculations of global positioning data based on the comparison of the instantaneous carrier to noise value to the exclusion threshold; and when the received signal is excluded, monitoring the received signal for readmittance to the calculation of global positioning data.
