Title
Adaptive Filter Approach for GPS Multipath Estimation Under Correntropy Criterion in Dynamic Multipath Environment
Abstract
For high-precision positioning and navigation systems, the positioning precision of receiver is jeopardized by multipath interference. Multipath suppression methods based on data processing have drawn much attention recently. The critical step of data processing-based method is to estimate multipath parameters. However, most multipath suppression methods falling into the category of data processing-based methods are limited to Gaussian noises, which means the performance of these methods may be degraded in non-Gaussian noises which are encountered quite often in reality. Besides, only static multipath case is studied in most existing literature, which is not sufficient for potential applications since the occurrence and the disappearance of multipath are always changeable along the movement of receiver. To address these problems, the maximum correntropy criterion(MCC) and the generalized maximum correntropy criterion(GMCC) are integrated into the traditional adaptive multipath estimation(AME) algorithm, named as MCC-AME and GMCC-AME, to handle the dynamic multipath estimation problem in non-Gaussian noises. Furthermore, MCC-AME and GMCC-AME are further improved by adopting forgetting factor, named as RMCC-AME and RGMCC-AME, to improve estimation accuracy and reduce time consumption in a recursive way. The four proposed algorithms also address the problems that the formerly proposed entropy-based multipath estimation algorithms are sensitive to the initial estimation and that the assumption of fixed number of multipath is required. The performance of the four proposed algorithms are analyzed and compared. The analytical results show that GMCC-AME outperforms MCC-AME regarding convergent speed, estimation accuracy and robustness, and RGMCC-AME performs even better than RMCC-AME in the same regard.
