  2. Pseudorandom noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_noise

    A pseudo-noise code (PN code) or pseudo-random-noise code (PRN code) is one that has a spectrum similar to a random sequence of bits but is deterministically generated. The most commonly used sequences in direct-sequence spread spectrum systems are maximal length sequences, Gold codes, Kasami codes, and Barker codes.

    There are two navigation message types: LNAV-L is used by satellites with PRN numbers 1 to 32 (called lower PRN numbers) and LNAV-U is used by satellites with PRN numbers 33 to 63 (called upper PRN numbers). [9] The two types use very similar formats. Subframes 1 to 3 are the same, [10] while subframes 4 and 5 are almost the same. Each message ...

    All satellites broadcast at the same two frequencies, 1.57542 GHz (L1 signal) and 1.2276 GHz (L2 signal). The satellite network uses a CDMA spread-spectrum technique [167]: 607 where the low-bitrate message data is encoded with a high-rate pseudo-random (PRN) sequence that is different for each satellite. The receiver must be aware of the PRN ...

    The new satellite was originally intended to replace the seventeen-year-old USA-117 satellite, [6] but currently both USA-117 (SVN-33) and USA-242 (SVN-66) are in active use. [7] USA-242 broadcasts its navigation signals using the PRN-27 signal modulation. United Launch Alliance conducted the launch of GPS IIF-4, using an Atlas V 401 carrier ...

    Safety of Life is a civilian-use signal, broadcast on the L5 frequency (1176.45 MHz). In 2009, a WAAS satellite sent the initial L5 signal test transmissions. SVN-62, the first GPS block IIF satellite, continuously broadcast the L5 signal starting on 28 June 2010.

    Model of a Galileo satellite. This is a list of past and present satellites of the Galileo navigation system. The fully operational constellation will nominally consist of 30 satellites in Medium Earth Orbit, with 24 active and 6 spares equally divided into 3 orbital planes in a Walker 24/3/1 configuration.
