Pseudo-Random Code Correlator Timing Errors Due to Multiple Reflections in Transmission Lines
Abstract
Multiple reflections in transmission lines can cause an amplification of timing errors associated with the delay sensitivity to environmental effects of the transmission lines. This multiplicative effect arises because the timing error in an early/late code correlator is a function of the relative RF carrier phase, the relative power levels, and the relative time delay between the direct and relected signal.
