1. A method comprising:
- determining a bit edge associated with information transmitted from a satellite during a detection operation of a receiver through a processor associated therewith; and
dynamically switching, through the processor, a mode of a signal acquisition of the receiver from a current integration mode of operation of a measurement to a bit-synchronous integration mode of operation of the measurement using the processor when the bit edge is determined.

Abstract
A method includes determining a bit edge associated with information transmitted through a satellite during a detection operation of a receiver through a processor associated therewith. The method also includes dynamically switching, through the processor, a mode of a signal acquisition of the receiver from a current integration mode of operation of a measurement to a bit-synchronous integration mode of operation of the measurement using a processor when the bit edge is determined.

9. A receiver comprising:
-
a detection module to determine a bit edge during a high-sensitivity dwell mode of operation of the receiver in which a satellite is identified; and a switching module to switch from a current integration mode of operation of a measurement to a bit-synchronous integration mode of operation of the measurement using a processor when the bit edge is determined during the high-sensitivity dwell mode of operation of the receiver. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)
