<p>Techniques to estimate the velocity of a terminal in a wireless communication system. Movement by the terminal results in a Doppler shift in the frequency of each transmitted signal received at the terminal. In one method, the positions of the terminal, a base station, and each of two or more satellites are initially determined. A residual rate of a change of pseudo-range may also be determined for each satellite, e.g., based on (1) an estimated baseband frequency error that includes the Doppler frequency shift due to the terminal s movement and (2) an estimated Doppler frequency shift due to movement by the satellite. A set of equations is then formed based on the determined positions of the terminal, the base station, and the satellites and the determined residual rates of change of pseudo-ranges for the satellites. The velocity of the terminal may thereafter be estimated based on the set of equations.</p> |
