  • GNSS RECEIVER DYNAMIC SPUR MITIGATION TECHNIQUES
    Publication number: 20150035701
    Abstract: Techniques for compensating for interference in a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver of a mobile device are provided. An example method according to these techniques includes determining transmission band information and channel tuning information associated with an operating configuration of a Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) transceiver of the mobile device, identifying interference compensation data using the transmission band information and the channel tuning information for compensating for interference caused by the WWAN transceiver at the GNSS receiver, and dynamically configuring notch filters of the GNSS receiver according to the interference compensation data.
