Abstract
This paper discusses the approaches of software GPS receiver. First, the definition of a software receiver, its difference from a conventional receiver, and the data collection hardware employed is presented. Then the acquisition and tracking algorithm is discussed. The transition from acquisition to tracking for a real time operation is presented. The navigation data decoding, the calculation of satellite position, and user position are discussed briefly. Finally, the advantages of a software receiver is presented. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
