    Abstract: A UE may employ two independent oscillators to provide timing to GNSS components and communication components, respectively. To perform a time measurement of the GNSS signals and a time measurement of the communication signals at the exact same time point, in an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus a UE. The UE synchronizes, at a first time point, first system time of a wireless communication component of the UE and second system time of a GNSS component of the UE. The UE further measures a GNSS signal at a second time point subsequent to the first time point to obtain a first GNSS signal measurement. The UE estimates a second GNSS signal measurement of the first time point based on the first GNSS signal measurement and a first time period between the first time point and the second time point.

    Abstract: A method for determining a location of a target includes: obtaining a plurality of guess distance values of a plurality of satellites, respectively; utilizing satellite signals received from the plurality of satellites to estimate a plurality of pseudo range values of the plurality of satellites, respectively; comparing the guess range values with the pseudo range values to generate a residual vector; and utilizing a processing unit for applying a rank-based approach based on the residual vector to generate a calculation result. The location of the target is derived from the calculation result.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for power saving in GNSS receivers. In one novel aspect, the ME tracking period, the ME interval, and the PE working period, the PE interval are dynamically determined based on the GNSS signal conditions and/or the user requirements. In one embodiment, acceptable provision estimated position fix are used. Estimated position result is generated at each GPS position interval if there is no position result generated by the PE working period. In another embodiment, the ME-tracking and/or the PE-working are adjusted to minimum operation needs by using ME-partial (MEP) and/or PE-partial (PEP). PEP is arranged aligned with MEP. In yet another embodiment, the PE working period is delayed such that the PE working period is aligned with the ME tracking period. The position result is generated based on a last epoch's measurement obtained in the previous ME tracking period.
