  • Publication number: 20040076223
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for processing Satellite Positioning System (SPS) signals. In one exemplary method, a first set of frequency coefficients, which corresponds to a first Doppler frequency of an SPS signal, is determined, and said SPS signal is processed in a matched filter with the first set of frequency coefficients during a first window of time. A second set of frequency coefficients, which corresponds to a second Doppler frequency of the SPS signal, is determined, and the SPS signal is processed in the matched filter with the second set of frequency coefficients during a second window of time, where the first and second windows of time occur within a period of time which is not greater than one SPS frame period.
