A Software-Defined GPS and Galileo Receiver: A Single-Frequency
A Software-Defined GPS and Galileo Receiver: A Single-Frequency Approach (Applied and Numerical Harmonic Analysis)
This book explore the use of new technologies in the area of satellite navigation receivers. In order to construct a reconfigurable receiver with a wide range of applications, the authors discuss receiver architecture based on software-defined radio techniques. The presentation unfolds in a user-friendly style and goes from the basics to cutting-edge research. The book is aimed at applied mathematicians, electrical engineers, geodesists, and graduate students. It may be used as a textbook in various GPS technology and signal processing courses, or as a self-study reference for anyone working with satellite navigation receivers.

A well written book. Excessively concise. Too much material on the RF Front-end, when the main expectable focus would be the base-band. The book does, however, serve its purpose well.

August 1, 2012A software-Defined GPS and Galileo Receiver (Review),
The table of contents of this book are reported below.
1. Signals and Systems
2. GPS Signal
3. Galileo Signal
4. GNSS Antennas and Front-Ends
5. GNSS Receiver Operation Overview
6. Acquisition
7. Carrier and Code Tracking
8. Data Processing and Positioning
9. Matlab Code
10. GNSS Signal Simulation
After a brief introduction on the basic elements of signal processing theory, this book gives an overview of GPS and Galileo signals. Then, the architectural design of a GNSS receiver is provided showing the hardware design (a front-end connect to a standard PC by USB) and focusing on the software approach and typical algorithms that are implemented to recover synchronisms.
The last two chapters contain a set of Matlab algorithms to track and process GPS and Galileo L1 data. The final result is a simple and useful tool for beginners and a good reference for expert reader.
