Abstract :
Costas loop can track received signal up to 75 KHz of carrier variation; It´s able to track GPS signal, where result of Doppler effect is 5 KHz; Correlator uses method FFT and provides value of chip delay every millisecond; C/A generator successfully generates pattern of PRN code and it can adjust phase delay with precision 62.5 ns; The design can tracks GPS signal with precision 62.5 ns.
