1. A method in a mobile device for determining a position associated with the mobile device, the method comprising:

  • receiving location signals at the mobile device;

    measuring sensor data at the mobile device;

    determining an oscillation rate of the mobile device from the sensor data;

    in response to the oscillation rate of the mobile device being undesirable, at least one of;

    (1) determining a desired sampling rate based on the oscillation rate, the desired sampling rate being different from the oscillation rate; and

    sampling the location signals at the mobile device at the desired sampling rate;

    (2) sampling the location signals at the mobile device at a randomized sampling rate;

    (3) disabling a power improvement technique;

    (4) increasing filtering of determined course information;

    (5) reducing a nominal filter bandwidth;

    or(6) increasing a present sampling rate of the location signals to satisfy Nyquist criteria for the oscillation rate; and

    determining the position associated with the mobile device using the location signals.
