MULTI-STAGED PIPELINED GNSS RECEIVER

Abstract:

Sets of digital samples associated with received wireless signals are received, each of the sets of digital samples corresponding to a particular RF path. The sets of digital samples are provided to a plurality of pipelines, each of the plurality of pipelines including a plurality of stages, each of the plurality of stages including one or more digital logic circuits. Sets of interconnect data are generated by the plurality of pipelines based on the sets of digital samples, the sets of interconnect data including at least one accumulating value. The sets of interconnect data are passed between adjacent pipelines of the plurality of pipelines along a direction. A result is generated by a last pipeline of the plurality of pipelines based on the at least one accumulating value.
