The need for indoor localization is expected to increase dramatically with the rising Location-Based Services (LBS) and other location and navigation applications. But the challenging indoor environment is one of the biggest obstacles for indoor localization. The aim of the proposed paper is to analyze the performance of the L1 GPS signal acquisition in indoor environments, in the presence of multipath and of cross-correlation effects.
