Noise-mitigated radar system
11709221 · 2023-07-25 · ·

An apparatus comprises a transmitter that transmits a signal, a receiver, a multiplier, and a signal shifter included in one of the transmitter and the receiver. The receiver receives a reflected signal comprising an interferer signal with at least one of an amplitude noise or a phase noise and generates a baseband signal comprising a real portion and an imaginary portion. The multiplier multiplies the imaginary portion by a value β chosen based on a power difference α between the amplitude noise and the phase noise, resulting in a modified baseband signal. The signal shifter shifts the interferer signal and the modified baseband signal. An estimator can process the reflected signal and estimate a frequency and phase of the interferer signal for the signal shifter. The value β can be represented as: β = 1 α 2
where α represents the power difference between the amplitude noise and the phase noise.

A first positioning portion, a calculator, and a second positioning portion are provided in an electronic device targeted for positioning. The first positioning portion obtains, by Doppler positioning, a candidate position which is a candidate for an initial position of the electronic device in code phase positioning from radio waves received from each of GPS satellites. The calculator calculates an index value indicating the magnitude of variation in code phase from a difference between a code phase obtained from the radio waves received from each of the GPS satellites and a code phase obtained based on a candidate position and a position of each GPS satellite. The second positioning portion performs the code phase positioning using ZCount or a candidate position according to the index value.
