Intelligent mitigation of GPS spoofing using the Kalman filter in the tracking loop based on multi-correlator

In the last decade, spoofing attack has been known as the most dangerous intentional interference in Global Positioning System (GPS). This work suggested an algorithm that performs spoofing mitigation by utilising the Kalman filter. In particular, first, in the tracking stage multi-correlator structure is established and correlators output are investigated by using a Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLP NN) in other to detect the spoofing attack, after that, the Kalman filter estimates the DLL discriminator output. The proposed method was verified using three different spoofing in which, the mitigation rate was 84.25%, 93.20% and 97.24%, respectively.
