The question? Who defined the most important signal parameter for controlling GPS multipath? The British/Hungarian physicist Dennis Gabor won the prize for the invention of holography. However, Gabor was also one of a handful of mathematicians and scientists who developed communication theory during the 1940s. Communication theory, also called information theory, is the branch of mathematics that deals with the efficient and accurate transmission of information-bearing signals from one place to another. Key to the theory is the concept of signal bandwidth. Now bandwidth can be defined in a number of different ways, but the particular bandwidth named after Cabor determines, in part, how accurately a GPS receiver can measure pseudorange or carrier phase in the presence of multipath. The Gabor bandwidth is determined by the particular shape of the signal's power spectral density function, and the larger the bandwidth the more resistant is the signal to multipath. The GPS receiver must have a processor that takes advantage of this resistance to provide measurements with minimal multipath contamination. Here, Dr Lawrence Weill outlines an implementation of a multipath mitigation algorithm based on the statistical theory of maximum likelihood and describes its expected performance with the new GPS signals soon to be available - signals characterized by a higher Cabor bandwidth than those currently transmitted.
