When considering a bistatic system made up of GNSS satellites and a receiver, the power at the receiver is modeled taking into account the matched filtering of the incoming signal with the PRN code modulation and Doppler filtering.

The simulator is able to predict the power reflected by land taking as input the system and observation parameters, as well as the land surface parameters.

Abstract
When considering a bistatic system made up of GNSS satellites and a receiver, the power at the receiver is modeled taking into account the matched filtering of the incoming signal with the PRN code modulation and Doppler filtering. In this paper, the simulator developed in the framework of the LEIMON Project [1] supported by ESA, will be presented. The simulator is able to predict the power reflected by land taking as input the system and observation parameters, as well as the land surface parameters. The earth surface (represented by bare and vegetated soils) leaves its signature through the bistatic scattering coefficient which has been modeled by means of well established electromagnetic theories applicable at L-band. Experimental data collected during the LEIMON campaign will be compared with simulated data. © 2010 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
