Background. Currently, in radio navigation systems of the various purposes, the urgent issue is stability increase of the GPS signal reception under such a jamming and spoofing types of the interference influence. In this article, the authors propose a new solution to the stability increase problem of the GPS signal reception against the jamming and spoofing interference based on the spatial selectivity of the receiver antenna. Spatial selectivity is provided through the integrated application of phased array digital beamforming technology and the use of the TLE NORAD information.
Objective. The research goal is to develop a methodology for the integrated identification of interference sources to the radio navigation system and to increase the noise immunity for receiving radio navigation signals via spatial selection through the digital beamforming technologies utilization.
Methods. For the research process, theoretical methods for the digital beamforming of receiving phased antenna system were used as well as the description of a two-line NORAD information element content, and calculation algorithms for the spacecraft current position.
Results. As a result of the research, the GPS signal reception model was formed using spatial selection of GPS signal sources and interference sources, the technique to increase the stability of GPS signal reception under the jamming and spoofing types of interference influence was developed, the block diagram was suggested for the receiving device that implements the developed technique through the integrated application of the digital beamforming technology of the phased array antenna and the TLE NORAD information utilization.
Conclusion. A conceptual idea of the method and a technical solution for the proposed method implementation were submitted. The method implementation will improve the stability of GPS signal reception under the influence of jamming and spoofing types of interference.
