Location method for selective call receiver operating in satellite communication system

A selective call receiver (24) that receives signals transmitted by orbiting satellites (A, B) uses certain information transmitted by the satellites to calculate an estimate of its position. Using that estimate and other information, the selective call receiver (24) is able to save power by disrega...
