Abstract
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals are used in Earth Observation for Radio Occultation and Reflectometry. The increasing effects of Radio-Frequency Interferences (RFI) on the performance of these receivers and navigation have suddenly sparked serious concerns due to their proliferation. Detection and mitigation of RFI heavily relies on the nature and location of the interfering sources. In some cases, null-steering or shielding can be used to mitigate RFI effects. In this work, a system to detect and locate RFI sources is presented, including signal classification and recording for countermeasure-related decision-making.

Abstract & Overview

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals are used in Earth Observation for Radio Occultation and Reflectometry. The increasing effects of Radio-Frequency Interferences (RFI) on the performance of these receivers and navigation have suddenly sparked serious concerns due to their proliferation. Detection and mitigation of RFI heavily relies on the nature and location of the interfering sources. In some cases, null-steering or shielding can be used to mitigate RFI effects. In this work, a system to detect and locate RFI sources is presented, including signal classification and recording for countermeasure-related decision-making.
