Reducing and sharing computations for GPS signal processing

Methods and systems for processing a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal are provided. A method includes: transforming a time domain GPS signal to a frequency domain GPS signal; storing a frequency domain pseudorandom noise (PRN) signal; correlating the frequency domain GPS signal with the PRN si...

Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems for processing a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal are provided. A method includes: transforming a time domain GPS signal to a frequency domain GPS signal; storing a frequency domain pseudorandom noise (PRN) signal; correlating the frequency domain GPS signal with the PRN signal at a plurality of frequencies, said correlating including: shifting the frequency domain GPS signal by an amount corresponding to one of the plurality of frequencies; downsampling the shifted frequency domain GPS signal; and multiplying the shifted frequency domain GPS signal by the stored frequency domain PRN signal to produce a correlated signal.
