A-GPS Basics – Performance Figures- If no aiding is provided:

Coldstart typical 35-45s with strong signals

- If time synchronization is only via protocol, or less accurate than 8ms, a GPS bit- and frame sync need to be done, prolonging startup timeColdstart + Aiding TTFF typical 18-24s

- If time synchronization is less accurate, but better than 8ms, Bit sync is requiredColdstart + Aiding TTFF typical 12s

- If time synchronization is doneusing a dedicated line (<400µs accuracy), best performance can be achievedColdstart + Aiding TTFF typical 4s
