4.6.  Assisted GPS System Overview 
 
Normally, the GPS receiver provides a position with latitude and longitude information after it decodes 
ephemeris data of the satellites in view. The process of searching for satellites, and decoding its 
ephemeris can take anywhere from tens of seconds to hundreds of seconds. To speed up this 
process, assistance data containing satellite ephemeris can be downloaded to the Enfora Enabler II-
G A-GPS module to aid in a faster time to first fix (TTFF) with a higher precision of accuracy.  
The Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS (A-GPS) module provides a compelling integrated module 
approach to providing A-GPS and GPRS packet data solutions in a single module.  This 
implementation provides various alternatives from simple autonomous GPS processing to Assisted 
GPS solutions.  The integration of the GPS chipset inside the Enabler modem reduces the complexity 
of system integration when location aware solutions are being developed.  This allows for smaller 
sizes, faster updates, and lower overall system cost.

GPS Module Modes of Operation.
