    Abstract: A method for reducing the positioning time of a GPS receiver is disclosed. In response to a request from a user function for positioning data, a GPS management section instructs a device control section to lower the functions of a group of components. The lowering of the functions of the components reduces the noise level. The GPS management section operates the GPS receiver.
