Abstract: The paper contains first results of the noise assessment of the new L2C signal, transmitted by PRN 17 and tracked by the PolaRx2C receiver. The tracking noise and multipath characteristics of L2C and CA codes are compared. In agreement with expectations, average amplitudes of multipath and tracking noise for the CA code and L2C are about equal. Assessment of signal power for the L2C signal is also presented.
