A global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver includes an internal signal processor configured to perform an internal signal processing operation on a satellite signal to generate satellite information, a switching circuit configured to transmit the satellite signal to the internal signal processor, and a control circuit configured to receive a blanking signal from an external communication device instructing that the internal signal processing operation is to be blocked, and configured to output control information for reducing transmission power of the external communication device and to control the switching circuit to transmit the satellite signal to the internal signal processor regardless of the blanking signal when a frequency at which the blanking signal is received exceeds a reference value.

A system on-chip includes a central processing unit and a memory controller. The memory controller receives initialization information indicating an initialization address range and an initialization value from the central processing unit, determines an initialization target memory and a local initialization address range of the initialization target memory based on the initialization information, and transmits initialization data including the initialization value to the initialization target memory by a predetermined unit to initialize the local initialization address range of the initialization target memory.

Methods of operating a mobile device are provided. A method of operating a mobile device includes calculating a mean power consumption with respect to a time duration, using a measured power consumption or using an estimated power consumption. The method includes comparing a performance constraint standard with the mean power consumption. Moreover, the method includes constraining performance of the mobile device, using an application processor of the mobile device, in response to determining that the mean power consumption exceeds the performance constraint standard. Related mobile devices are also provided.
