• It is a Spread Spectrum Modulation (such as CDMA)

• It is used in Satelite Navigation System (Galileo)

Spread Spectrum

• How to get ?Answer is By multiplying signal with high frequency code such as PN code

• Why to do so ? As Bandwidth is major limited contraint

PN Code

Low Pass Filter

• It is a Spread Spectrum Modulation (such as CDMA)

• It is used in Satelite Navigation System (Galileo)

Satelite Navigation System

• Used to find out the location of a Device on earth

• It requires minimum 3 satellite• To Find out Location, Distance from each

satellite is need to know

Distance = Speed X Time

Trilateration Concept

• Its mathematic Concept

Galileo Vs GPS,GLONASS

• Galileo will provide a unique global Search and Rescue (SAR) function.

• Satellites will be equipped with a transponder, which is able to transfer signals from the user's transmitter to the Rescue Co-ordination Centre, which will then initiate the rescue operation.

• At the same time, the system will provide a signal to the user, informing them that their situation has been detected and that help is on the way.

• This feature is new and is considered a major upgrade compared to the existing GPS and GLONASS navigation systems, which do not provide feedback to the user.

Spectrum Interoperability

• BOC modulation is used to reduce the interference with BPSK-modulated GPS signal

• where, GPS signals have most of their spectral energy concentrated around the carrier frequency, while BOC signals have low energy around the carrier frequency and two main spectral lobes further away from the carrier (thus, the name of split-spectrum).

Continue…

• A BOC-modulated signal consists of a sinusoidal carrier, a sub-carrier, a pseudo-random noise (PRN) spreading code and a data sequence

• The BOC signal is the product in the time domain of these components

• A BOC modulation is denoted BOC(fs,fc), where fs is the subcarrier frequency, and fc is the code rate,defined by

fs = m*f0, fc = n*f0.

• So BOC can also denote as BOC(m,n)

Continue…

• Here f0 is C/A (Coarse/Acquisition code) used in GPS

• It is a 1023 bit long PN Othogonal Code• Each code is repeated after every 1ms.• So bit rate is given by 1.023 Mbps• Which means f0 is 1.023 Mhz• So BOC(2,3) means• fs = 2*f0, fc = 3*f0.

Application

• The BOC(10,5) modulation used for the M-code signal, the new military signal on GPS carriers L1 and L2.

• A BOC(5,2) modulation that has been suggested as a candidate for a new civil signal on GPS carriers L1 and L2 in addition to the C/A-code or L2C signal, Y-code signal, and M-code signal, and that fits within the existing 24 MHz allocation on these carriers.

• A BOC(8,4) modulation that has very similar spectral properties to a PSK-R modulation with a spreading code rate of 10.23 MHz.

Variants

• Sine BOC (SinBOC) • Cosine BOC (CosBOC)• Alternative BOC (AltBOC)• Multiplexed BOC (MBOC)• Double BOC (DBOC)
