GPS/Galileo multipath detection and mitigation using closed-form solutions (Q966226)

Summary: We propose an efficient method for the detection of Line of Sight (LOS) and Multipath (MP) signals in global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) which is based on the use of virtual MP mitigation (VMM) technique. By using the proposed method, the MP signals' delay and coefficient amplitudes can be efficiently estimated. According to the computer simulation results, it is obvious that our proposed method is a solution for obtaining high performance in the estimation and mitigation of MP signals and thus it results in a high accuracy in GNSS positioning.
