The document discusses GPS signal structure and navigation messages. It explains that GPS signals contain ranging codes and navigation data to allow receivers to calculate travel time from satellites and satellite coordinates. The main signals, L1 and L2, are modified by coarse acquisition and precise codes. Navigation messages are transmitted at 50 Hz and contain data like GPS week numbers, date, and time to help receivers determine location. Anti-spoofing techniques generate encrypted codes to protect military receivers from interference.

- 2. GPS Signal Requirements • Method (code) to identify each satellite • The location of the satellite or some information on how to determine it • Information regarding the amount of time elapsed since the signal left the satellite • Details on the satellite clock status
- 3. GPS Signals 1 = Peak amplitude (Û), 2 = Peak-to-peak amplitude (2Û), 3 = RMS amplitude (Û/√2), 4 = Wave period (not an amplitude) In this simple wave equation U is the oscillating variable, A is the peak amplitude of the wave, t is time, K and b are arbitrary constants representing time and displacement offsets respectively.
- 4. Frequency f is the frequency in Hertz ("Hz"), meaning the number of flashes per second. T is the period in seconds ("s"), meaning the number of seconds per flash. T and f are reciprocals
- 5. Binary number In mathematics and digital electronics, a binary number is a number expressed in the binary numeral system or base-2 numeral system which represents numeric values using two different symbols: typically 0 and 1.

- 10. Ranging Code • The GPS satellites continuously transmit navigation signals in two frequencies in L (L1 & L2) band. • Each Satellite send down exactly the same two radio frequencies L1 = 1575.42 Mhz L2 = 1227.60 Mhz • These signals contain ranging codes and navigation data to allow the users to compute the travelling time from satellite to receiver and the satellite coordinates at any epoch.
- 11. • The main signal L- Band carrier wave are modified by two ranging code The clear/access or coarse/ acquisition (C/A) code The private or precise (P) code • The L1 frequency is transmitted twice, once with the C/A code and once with P-code •The L2 frequency is only encoded with P code Ranging Code
- 12. C/A Code • One code assigned to each GPS satellite • A 1023 chip (bit) long binary sequence generated at a rate of 1.023 MHz (1.023 million chips per second) •The entire C/A code repeats itself every millisecond •30 meter accuracy easily obtained with the C/A code •The starting point for each code generated by each satellites is unique so no two satellite have the same start point (or epoch) •Available to all GPS users (not classified by military) • A unique C/A code is assigned to each satellite and this number is used to identify each satellite
- 13. P-Code •The resolution of P-Code is ten times of the resolution of the C/A code •The P-code is similar to the C/A-code, but instead of a sequence of 1023 chips, the chips counts runs to the millions (2 x1014 ). As a result, the complete sequence for the P-code taken 267 days to complete. •Only one P-code, satellite use different weeks from same code and P-code repeats each week. •Typically receivers need acquire the C/A code before switching the P-code
- 14. How do you create codes? o You use binary addition rules. o 0+0=0 o 1+0=1 o 0+1=1 o 1+1=0 o GPS uses “shift registers.” o The more shift registers you have, the more complicated you can make your code.
- 15. How do you create codes? Register 1 Register 2 Register 3 Code 1 1 1 - Start with all 1’s in your shift registers Add Register 1 and Register 3 The answer 0 goes into Register 1 and everything shifts to the right. Here is an example with 3 shift registers For this example, 1+1 =0 ==> 0
- 16. How do you create codes? Register 1 Register 2 Register 3 Code 1 1 1 - 0 1 1 1 Resulting in
- 17. Next 0+1=1 Register1 Register2 Register3 Code 1 1 1 - 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 How do you create codes?
- 18. After 2N -1 steps (N is the number of registers), the code repeats Register1 Register2 Register3 Code 1 1 1 - 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 For 3 shift registers, the code repeats after 7 steps.
- 19. Real GPS • Uses 10 shift registers. • They add different registers to produce the codes for different satellites. • Satellite 1 uses 2 and 6. • Satellite 2 uses 3 and 7, and so on. • A 10-shift register code repeats after 210 -1, or 1023.
- 20. For example, here are the first 1000 numbers of the code for satellite 1 00001000101001110000111001001000100001000101011000111101110010101101100111101011 00101100101001100111111011001111001001100110100011100010010001011000101101110000 00110110010001000101101000101001000000011111000110001011111011111100110111001011 01111000111111010100101000010101001110000110100111011000111101111100001111111111 01001001001001100111010101111100001000101101001111110000100110111100111000110110 10110110101000010110100101000101001000111001110001010010111010111010101000001011 01110011011001101000000000001110111011000110110101010110110001110001100110011111 01011111001110101010000011111100100101000000111010001111011010010110110000010010 01001100001101100001111011101110001101110110100111001000110101010000110110100101 11001011111111101100011100000011011100011000000100000000100000110101000101011110 11000111011010001100101011111001111010000000110111100110011101011110000011110110 01000100101011100000000100001010101001111101100111011011111100101111000100110101 Real GPS

How do you compare codes?
- 25. Why are the codes shifted? Distance (in meters) = Time Difference (in seconds) * 3 x108 m/sec What is a typical Time Difference? GPS satellites are ~20,000,000 meters above the Earth. 20,000,000/300,000,000~ 70 milliseconds The shift gives the GPS receiver the time difference.
- 26. The GPS satellites transmit a very weak signal, about the same as the earth’s inherent background radio noise. Both the GPS signal and the background noise are random so that when we divide the signal up into time slices or chips, the number of signal matches (X’s) will equal the number of non- matches (0’s). If we slide the receiver’s pseudo-random code back and forth until it lines up with the satellites, there will be more matches and we will be able to distinguish the signal from the earth’s background noise. Distance Measuring
- 27. The GPS receiver and satellite generate the same pseudo-random code at exactly the same time. When the code arrives from the satellite, the time difference is compared to the same code generated by the receiver. This difference is multiplied by the speed of light to determine the distance to the satellite. Distance Measuring

- 29. It’s useful to have a computer to do these comparisons, especially since you have to test a lot of different shifts. Then you can plot how good the agreement is as a function of shift. Codes shifting

The GPS Week Number field is modulo 1024 (~19.6 years). • This means that at the completion of week 1023, the GPS week number rolled over to 0 on midnight GPS Time of the evening of 21 August 1999 / morning of 22 August 1999. • Note that this corresponded to 23:59:47 UTC on 21 August 1999.
