Abstract
Satellite navigation signals are feeble when they reach the ground, so they are vulnerable to attacks from outside interference signals. By emitting spoofing interference signals similar to real satellite signals, spoofing interference can make receivers give wrong navigation, position, and time information, and it is challenging to detect. This seriously affects the safe use of GNSS; therefore, it is essential to identify spoofing interference signals quickly and accurately. In our study, we proposed a novel six-array spoofing-interference-monitoring array antenna, which achieved the detection and identification of spoofing interference sources by monitoring the relevant peaks and combining an airspace-trapping algorithm. Moreover, we quickly accomplished our search for the whole circumferential ambiguity by using long- and short-baseline algorithms, which can realize the high-precision detection of spoofing interference sources. To verify this method's accuracy, we conducted outdoor real experiments using a special spoofing interference source, and our experimental results show that our proposed array antenna's directional accuracy for spoofing interference signals is kept within 2°, showing high spoofing interference direction-finding capability.
