hi, Can someone please tell me how to do this?
I want to generate DSSS with BPSK modulation in gnuradio but I have a few doubts that couldn't be cleared even after a lot of looking for an answer.
The DSSS transmitter block diagram from various books shows that i have to XOR the input data with the PN sequence to spread and then BPSK modulate. My doubt is
1. I did the same and then BPSK modulated using the gnuradio DBPSK modulation without the diff encoder block but I am having trouble in acquisition at the receiver. I am using the method described in the book "Fundamentals of Global Positioning System Receivers" by Tsui. Maybe I am doing something fundamentally wrong at the transmitter.
2. Someone on this list suggested BPSKmod-> RRCFilter ->SPREADING. If samples per symbol were 1 then I can just multiply the symbol with the PN sequence but as it is always greater than 1 I cannot figure out how I can spread. Can someone please help me here?
3. Is it possible to remove the RRC filter completely and instead use (1+0j) and (-1+0j) symbols to modulate the carrier and still get good results at the receiver? If it is possible then life would be easier as I don't have to worry about the problem mentioned above in 2.
3. If anyone can share the transmitter block diagram of a GPS transmitter then I think it can be of great help as it has a DSSS modulation scheme. All i found on the internet was block diagrams but my concern is about pulse shaping and none of these diagrams show nothing about that.
I did put in an effort to find answers by myself for a long time but as I couldn't find an answer I am writing for a little guidance.
Thanks
