Abstract: Global navigation satellite systems and methods use L5 GNSS signals to acquire secondary code phases of those signals without using L1 GNSS signals to aid in the acquisition of secondary code phases. Various embodiments are described to perform this acquisition.

Abstract: GNSS receivers and systems within such receivers use improvements to reduce memory usage while providing sufficient processing resources to receive and acquire and track E5 band GNSS signals directly (without attempting in one embodiment to receive L1 GNSS signals). Other aspects are also described.

Abstract: Many modern Global navigational satellite systems (GNSS) utilize signaling that includes a primary pseudorandom number (PRN) code and a secondary low rate PRN code, the latter of which is modulo-2 added to the first. In some GNSS acquisition receivers in which precise a priori synchronization information is unavailable, the acquisition process performs a set of correlation operations that begin at a time that is not aligned with the epoch of the secondary PRN code. This epoch misalignment results in loss of system performance. This disclosure provides new methods for dealing with such epoch misalignments and minimizes system performance loss. In one embodiment, a method combines a first and a second correlation operation, each using a different correlation epoch, to reduce the effect of epoch misalignments.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, systems and machine readable media that can provide position solutions using, for example, pattern matching with GNSS signals in urban canyons. In one method, based upon an approximate location in an urban canyon and a set of 3D data about building structures in the urban canyon, an expected signal reception data can be generated for both line of sight and non-line of sight GNSS signals from GNSS satellites, or other sources of GNSS signals, at each point in a set of points in a grid (or other model) in the vicinity of the approximate location). This expected signal reception data can be matched to a received set of GNSS signals that have been received by a GNSS receiver, and the result of the matching can produce an adjustment to the approximate location that is used in the position solution of the GNSS receiver.
