Generation of new detection codes for GPS satellites using NSGA-II

Abstract

In this paper we obtain new detection codes, to determine whether a GPS satellite in particular is visible, using NSGA-II as multi-objective optimization engine. Our approach takes into consideration the length of the code and the sampling frequency in comparison with other approaches found in the literature that fix those design parameters. The obtained new detection codes produce an improvement of the 19% in terms of CPU execution time. Results demonstrate that both design parameters must be taken in consideration to obtain high quality detection codes.
