Zusammenfassung:Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) interference poses an increasing threat for civil aviation, and the detection and mitigation of interferences can help to make the sector more robust. This paper focuses on the detection and mitigation capabilities of a software-based Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) as part of a wider study in which different detection and mitigation methods are tested and compared. The proposed CRPA uses eigenvalue decomposition to determine the weight vector and is combined with MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) for detection purposes. Simulations are used to test the software CRPA for its robustness against different types of interference in static and dynamic scenarios. The test method and processing pipeline are described. Initial results show the CRPA algorithm under test is capable of detecting and mitigating different types of interferences, and mitigation can help a receiver to maintain a position velocity time (PVT) solution for higher levels of interference power.
