Abstract
A new data-aided algorithm for parameter estimation of the co-channel AIS signal transmitted over the additive white Gaussian noise channel is proposed in this paper. The co-channel signal consists of a strong signal with high power and a weak signal with low power. The parameters of the strong signal are estimated by searching the ambiguity function of the co-channel signal in two dimensions. A reference signal is therefore reconstructed with the estimated parameters and the aided data. By removing the ambiguity function of the reconstructed reference signal from that of the original co-channel signal, a new co-channel signal ambiguity function is obtained, from which the parameters of the weak signal are estimated. The simulation results illustrate that the proposed algorithm can estimate the parameters of the co-channel AIS signal effectively.
