Patent ID: 10094930

Abstract:
A system to detect spoofing attacks is provided. The system includes a satellite-motion-and-receiver-clock-correction module, a compute-predicted-range-and-delta-range module, a subtractor, and delta-range-difference-detection logic. The satellite-motion-and-receiver-clock-correction module periodically inputs, from a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver, a carrier phase range for a plurality of satellites. The satellite-motion-and-receiver-clock-correction module outputs a corrected-delta-carrier-phase range for a current epoch to a first input of a subtractor. The compute-predicted-range-and-delta-range module outputs a predicted delta range to a second input of the subtractor. The predicted delta range is based on inertial measurements observed for the current epoch. The subtractor outputs a difference between the corrected-delta-carrier-phase range and the predicted delta range for the current epoch to delta-range-difference-detection logic. The delta-range-difference-detection logic determines if the difference exceeds a selected-range threshold. If the difference exceeds the selected-range threshold, the delta-range-difference-detection logic determines the GNSS receiver was spoofed in the current epoch.
