Method for acquiring a plurality of GPS signals, in which the signals
received from the space vehicles are correlated, in an array of parallel
processing modules (20) with local replicas of a pseudorandom code. The
local pseudorandom code generators are slewed periodically, on detection
of an external periodical trigger INT_ACC, and the correlation data are
dumped simultaneously to all processing modules in output registers for
acquisition and tracking software. The integration period is shorter than
the natural period of the pseudorandom code sequence, and all the local
generators are slewed at the same time, thereby allowing a quicker
acquisition of the SV C/A code.
