Abstract: An electromagnetic transmission carrying a bauded signal, such as a transmission from an orbiting satellite, is processed for Doppler shift analysis. The electromagnetic transmission is captured and a non-linear operation is performed to expose a cyclostationary feature of the captured transmission that defines a rate-line having a rate-line frequency that is related to the bauded signal and to the motion of the transmitter relative to the receiver. The rate-line frequency is tracked in time to generate data indicative of Doppler shift associated with the satellite. The data are then supplied to a tracking receiver.

Abstract: The receiver captures an electromagnetic transmission carrying a bauded signal, such as a transmission from an orbiting satellite, and processes it for Doppler shift analysis. The electromagnetic transmission is captured and a non-linear operation is performed to expose a cyclostationary feature of the captured transmission that will define a rate-line. This rate-line will exist at a frequency that is related to the bauded signal and Doppler shift relative to the motion of the transmitter to the receiver. The rate-line frequency is tracked in time to generate data indicative of a Doppler shift associated with the satellite and processed by an estimator fed by satellite propagator to supply positioning, navigation and timing services at the receiver output.
