Abstract
Using a global positioning system receiver in high dynamic condition needs to apply some method to help the receiver keep tracking lock on the signal as possible as can. Because of some benefits of the vector tracking method in comparison to the scalar method in GPS tracking loops for keeping lock on the signal, the vector tracking method is considered. To increase the tracking accuracy in high dynamic conditions, using some method of multiuser detection in the vector tracking loop is proposed. The variance analysis showed the improvement in performance of the proposed method.
