Abstract

Global navigation satellite system receivers are highly vulnerable to complex electromagnetic interference, while existing studies face difficulties in quantifying interference parameters and establishing a unified framework across different interference types. To address this challenge, this article proposes a receiver anti-interference performance evaluation method based on a power-sensitive characteristic exponential model. The approach first eliminates spectral amplitude deviations through L2-norm normalization, and then quantifies the similarity between measured and reference spectra using cosine similarity. A power penalty term is introduced to construct a weighted similarity measure, which is further combined with dynamically updated frequency weights to fuse multifrequency information and yield interference-sensitive feature scores. A joint loss function is designed to iteratively optimize the frequency weights and a unified decision threshold. Finally, discrete scores are fitted with an exponential model to form continuous power-sensitive characteristic exponential models. Experimental results demonstrate that the optimized unified threshold achieves reliable failure detection, with fitted threshold powers deviating within$\pm 3$dB of measurements. Additional validation with signals of varying pulse duty cycles confirms the generality of the method.
