Zusammenfassung:A global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver including a sequential chip mixed frequency correlator array system (SCMFCAS) is provided. The SCMFCAS includes P signal generators, each receiving N samples of intermediate frequency (IF) data of a GNSS signal. Each signal generator includes a primary mixer, a pseudo random noise code generator, and Q mixed frequency correlators (MFCs). Each MFC generates accumulated correlation components of the N samples of the IF data by processing the N samples of the IF data. Adders and subtractors operably connected to the SCMFCAS are time division multiplexed for generating correlation values of a positive frequency and a negative frequency of the N samples of the IF data by combining the accumulated correlation components. Time division multiplexing the adders and the subtractors across the SCMFCAS and generation of the correlation values reduce logic area of the SCMFCAS, thereby reducing power consumption of the GNSS receiver.
