You might want to read Chapter 5 of Kaplan's "Understanding GPS" -- 
"Satellite signal acquisition, tracking and data demodulation".

It might be useful or not, depending on the specifics.

You can try a suitably large set of possible doppler values and see which
one best allows extraction of the signal.

(Yes, it is sometimes done this way.)

This might be a dumb question, but don't you have a way of getting the LEO's orbit parameters?

Hi,

I am looking at a Goldcode transmitted from a LEO satellite and want to perform a matched filter on it. The problem is there is a significant amount of doppler (20kHz) which degrades the performance of the matched filter significantly.

If I have a chunk of this signal (quadrature sampled) what would be a good approach to negate the affects of the doppler?

Any input will be much appreciated. Thanks.
