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

Most of the current GNSS receiver systems gather (at least) the blocks depicted in Figure 1, although some architecture variations might be present. Other typical applicable
