Abstract

A GPS receiver that is capable of acquiring a GPS signal from a plurality of GPS satellites efficiently and at a high speed, and that is capable of performing a positioning calculation with a high degree of accuracy. The FFT processing result of the addition result from the PN code, stored in the memory, is multiplied by the FFT processing result of the IF data (the received data), stored in the memory, and by inverse-diffusing this result, a correlative value is obtained. By repeating this process while changing the combination of the PN codes to be added, and the synchronization acquisition processing, by a plurality of PN codes, is performed quickly with only a small amount of processing based on these results.
