Abstract

NavIC (Navigation with Indian Constellation) constellation consists of four geosynchronous and three geostationary satellites and it is developed by ISRO, India. It provides position, velocity and timing services. Doppler Collision (DC) is a phenomenon where tracking errors are introduced in the measurements due to cross-correlation between the satellites. If relative doppler between satellites is less than the code loop bandwidth, then DC occurs. In this paper, to analyze DC impact on NavIC, the Doppler shift of each GEO satellite is calculated, the most effected GEO satellite pair is identified. In high dynamic applications like missile launches the effect of DC is very significant. In order to investigate DC in high dynamic conditions a simulation of trajectory path of the receiver is considered. For the precise position estimation, the contribution of DC error will be high, so it needs to be minimized. An efficient algorithm is developed to mitigate the DC using narrow correlator design of the receiver. Using the proposed algorithm, the DC duration for 1C-1G satellite pair has been reduced from 50min 21sec to 2sec in static conditions. Whereas in dynamic conditions from 4h20min 28sec to 5sec with DLL bandwidth of 4Hz and 0.1 chip spacing of receiver design.
