摘要

Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC) is a satellite system consisting of seven satellites orbiting the Earth in GEO and GSO orbits. This satellite constellation offers standard positioning service (SPS) for common public use and restricted service (RS) for approved users, using two frequencies: the L5 band and the S band, with the CDMA technique. This paper examines the suitability of three binary sequences—Gold, Weil, and Weil-like Sidelnikov-Lempel-Cohn-Eastman (WSLCE) sequences—as PRN codes for the primary in-phase and quadrature-phase codes of the L5 band of IRNSS. It describes the generation of these sequences and compares them based on their even auto-correlation and cross-correlation values. The randomness of these sequences is evaluated using the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) statistical test suite. A comparison of the three binary PRN sequences, each 10,230 bits in length for the L5 frequency band, reveals that WSLCE sequences exhibit greater randomness compared to the other two sequences.
