Abstract
A method for controlling a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver operated in a first operation state includes: providing a state switching criterion; obtaining a positioning information; determining whether to switch from the first operation state to a second operation state according to the obtained positioning information and the state switching criterion, wherein the power consumption of the GNSS receiver operating under the first operation state and the second operation state is different.
