Abstract
To guarantee the integrity of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) for safety-critical users, a satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) makes use of the integrity monitoring architecture, of which the signal quality monitor (SQM) is an important component to address the potential risks caused by satellite-induced signal anomalies. Due to the introduction of dual-frequency multi-constellation (DFMC) techniques in 2025, the ranging uncertainty will be reduced by the elimination of first-order ionospheric delay, but the biases measured in each individual signal will be inflated by the ionosphere-free combinations. Moreover, multiple modulations of DFMC signals might introduce applicability uncertainty of a traditional SQM method that has been protecting GPS L1C/A signal only. Thus, higher requirements are put forward for future SQM methods in detection sensitivity and modulation independence. This paper first proposes a design methodology for the SQM algorithm for BDS B1C/B2a signals, which could be easily extended to the DF combinations of other GNSS core constellations. Then, by comparing the performances of SQM baseline algorithms based on traditional multi-correlator and emerging chip domain observables (CDOs), respectively, the superiority of CDO-based SQM is declared. Detailed design iterations are further discussed, including the algorithm practicalization with optimizing code-phase bin length and lowering sampling frequency, as well as the metric simplification, to promote the overall performance while preserving a lower implementation complexity. Ultimately, a CDO-based SQM algorithm for BDS B1C/B2a signals is reached, which would be considered as an effective candidate in new generation DFMC SBASs.
