Abstract

Apparatuses and methods of manufacturing same, systems, and methods are described for combining received and correlated Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals and using the combined signal for improving GNSS reception in, inter alia, challenging environments. In one aspect, a first correlated GNSS signal and a second correlated GNSS signal are stored and then combined, and the combined signal is used to adjust reception of the first GNSS signal and/or the second GNSS signal. If the first and second correlated GNSS signals are stored by unequal time periods, time periods of one or both are added together until the total added first correlated GNSS signal is the same length of time as the total added second correlated GNSS signal. In order to properly combine the GNSS signals, gain/balancing factor(s) may be applied, the polarity of one or both may be flipped, etc.
