In order to process the L-band signals transmitted from the satellites and compute the navigation solution, a GNSS receiver can be designed to target different applications, markets, and solutions. From single or multi-frequency, single or multi-constellation, to survey or automotive applications, system specification details extend through a broad range of decisions and trade-offs, in order to achieve the best performance desired. The following sections tackle some considerations at a GNSS receiver system design level.

Overview
