Efficient and Unique learning of the Complex Receiver Structure of Galileo E5 AltBOC using an Educational Software in Matlab
This paper presents an efficient and unique method to learn the complex receiver structure of Galileo E5 AltBOC (Alternative Binary Offset Carrier). The software application is designed in Matlab to present each step involved in the design of software receiver of Galileo E5 signal. This software application contains the fundamental concepts of the Galileo E5 signal in the form of signal acquisition, signal tracking, extraction of the navigation data, power spectral density (PSD) of the AltBOC (15, 10), Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the E5a and E5b signal and implementation of the subcarrier used for the AltBOC (15,10). This paper also presents the extraction of navigation data by a novel based approach using the prompt channel of carrier tracking from the code loop discriminator.
