Satellite positioning system navigation bit aiding
A method of processing a satellite signal includes: receiving a satellite positioning system (SPS) signal, including an SPS data signal of unknown data content, from a satellite at a wireless communication device; receiving symbol indications, of determined symbol values, from a terrestrial wireless communication system at the wireless communication device; correlating the SPS data signal with a pseudo-random noise code to obtain first correlation results; and using the symbol indications and the first correlation results to determine a measurement of the SPS signal.

Method and apparatus for monitoring, detecting, testing, diagnosing and/or mitigating interference in a communication system
A system that incorporates aspects of the subject disclosure may perform operations including, for example, receiving, via an antenna, a signal generated by a communication device, detecting passive intermodulation interference in the signal, the interference generated by one or more transmitters unassociated with the communication device, and the interference determined from signal characteristics associated with a signaling protocol used by the one or more transmitters. Other embodiments are disclosed.
System for calibration of a global navigation satellite system simulator as well as method of calibrating a global navigation satellite system simulator
A system for calibration of a global navigation satellite system simulator, comprising a radio frequency component, a digital-to-analog conversion component, and a digital baseband component.

WIDE AREA POSITIONING SYSTEM
Systems and methods are described for determining position of a receiver. The positioning system comprises a transmitter network including transmitters that broadcast positioning signals. The positioning system comprises a remote receiver that acquires and tracks the positioning signals and/or satellite signals. The satellite signals are signals of a satellite-based positioning system. A first mode of the remote receiver uses terminal-based positioning in which the remote receiver computes a position using the positioning signals and/or the satellite signals. The positioning system comprises a server coupled to the remote receiver. A second operating mode of the remote receiver comprises network-based positioning in which the server computes a position of the remote receiver from the positioning signals and/or satellite signals, where the remote receiver receives and transfers to the server the positioning signals and/or satellite signals.

Radio communication
A digital radio receiver (7) is arranged to receive and process data frames, each data frame comprising (i) a plurality of identical synchronization sequences; (ii) identification data different from the synchronization sequences; and (iii) convolution-encoded message data. An initial-synchronization section of the receiver (7) uses the plurality of synchronization sequences in a received data frame to perform a frequency-synchronization or symbol-timing-synchronization operation. A frame-synchronization section determines frame-synchronization information by correlating at least a part of the received identification data against reference identification data stored in a memory. A convolution-decoding section uses the frame-synchronization information to decode the message data.
