On New Signal Structures for GNSS-2

Robert Schweikert, Thomas Woerz, Riccardo De Gaudenzi

Abstract:	This paper summarises the main results of an ESA study on a desirable signal structure for a second generation satellite navigation. Stemming from the requirements for increased accuracy, reduced time-to-first-fix and integrity information provision, the paper describes a novel GNNS2 signal definition. Although the final parameter definition is largely based on the European system constraints, a number of design guidelines like the use of square-root raised-cosine chip shaping and increased data broadcasting capabilities are expected to be of general applicability to any future satellite navigation system.
