“…First, a static user scenario in an open-sky environment without variation of visible satellites was simulated. The C/N 0 of three visible satellites (SV#24, 26, 27) was set to be linearly degraded down to 15 dB-Hz from 50 dB-Hz, while the other five visible satellites (SV#9, 10,15,18,21) were assumed to provide a high enough C/N 0 (%50 dB-Hz). For the assessment of the local filter performance without any influence from the navigation filter, the local KFs of interest (Options 2, 3, and 4) were implemented to operate in a scalartracking mode that has a loop closure in each local channel, and their performance is compared with the traditional approach in terms of carrier tracking.…”
