Abstract

The paper addresses the selection of the integration bandwidth for solving the navigation signals power measurement problem. Quasi-optimal solutions for a frequency-division signal are considered. The dependence of the power measurement result variance on the integration bandwidth is simulated, and a rule for optimum finding is formulated. As a result of the experiment, experimental confirmation of the proposed rule was obtained.

Keywords

GNSS, integration bandwidth, passband, signal power
