Tracking and Position Errors in GNSS Receivers with Intermittent Signal Tracking

Modern global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers in battery‐operated devices employ cyclic tracking or intermittent signal tracking to conserve power. The receivers temporarily halt signal tracking during a ‘sleep period’ and continue tracking in the remaining ‘active period.’ The ratio of active period duration to total duration within a position update interval expressed as a percentage is known as the
