TY - CONF AB - Current navigation systems like GPS (Global Positioning System) and its Russian counterpart GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System) only evaluate the direct signal path. The receivers treat the reflected paths also reaching the receiver antenna as disturbance which has to be suppressed. Multipath affects the tracking accuracy by resulting in a degeneration of the S-curve of the DLL (delay locked loop). Nowadays the future European systems GALILEO and GPSIIF/III with two new signals are on the way to the market and it is time to think about new receiver structures. Therefore we investigated if it is possible to use multipath for navigation constructively.
