The study of ground reflections of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals, as in GNSS Reflec-tometry (GNSS-R) can lead to the receiver height estimation. The latter is estimated by comparing the time of arrival difference between the direct and reflected signals, also called path separation. In ground -based scenarios, this path separation can be very small, inducing important interference between paths, which makes it difficult to correctly obtain altimetry products. The path separation estimation can be ob-tained by a brute force dual source maximum likelihood estimator (2S-MLE), but this solution has a large computational cost. On the other hand, the path separation is so small that a number of approximations can be done. In this study, a third order Taylor approximation of the dual source likelihood criterion is proposed to reduce its complexity. The proposed algorithm performance is compared to the non approx-imated 2S-MLE for the estimation of the path separation, and to a standard single source processing for the estimation of the direct signal time-delay. These results, along with the corresponding lower bounds, prove that the proposed approach may be of interest for two applications: ground-based GNSS-R altime-try (or radar with low elevation targets) and GNSS multipath mitigation.(c) 2023 Elsevier B.V.
