Among many indoor positioning technologies, pseudolite positioning technology has become an important supplement to GNSS. In indoor open environments, pseudolite positioning technology can usually perform high-precision positioning. However, in a complex environment, the pseudolite receiver is seriously interfered by multipath and other interference signals, which will lead to a serious decline in the observation accuracy, signal lock loss or even no positioning results. Therefore, this work proposes a pseudolite indoor anti-multipath receiver based on reference multipath estimating delay lock loop (Ref-MEDLL). It adds the Ref-MEDLL multipath estimator module and the multipath mitigation module to the traditional receiver signal processing architecture. In the multipath mitigation module, the multipath estimation adaptive mitigation of vector tracking (MEAM-VT) method and the multipath estimation direct mitigation (MEDM) method for multipath mitigation is proposed. Experimental results show that the Ref-MEDLL multipath estimation method has good adaptability to multipath signals that have different time delays and different amplitudes; both the MEDM receiver and the MEAM-VT receiver have good multipath mitigation performance. The MEAM-VT method performs better than the MEDM method in multipath mitigation and tracking, but the stability of the pseudorange observations of the MEAM-VT method is not as good as that of the MEDM method. The positioning accuracy of the MEDM receiver and the MEAM-VT receiver has been improved to different degrees in static positioning experiments and dynamic positioning experiments.
