Methods and apparatuses for determining a position of a mobile satellite positioning system (SPS) receiver which is coupled to a communication receiver or transceiver. In one exemplary method, a change in a communication signal received by the communication receiver is determined. A parameter, based on the change, is determined, and SPS signals from SPS satellites are processed according to the parameter. According to further details of this method, the change involves the fluctuation of the level of the communication signal and the parameter is a motion information which specifies a frequency range for searching for SPS signals in the process of acquiring the SPS signals from SPS satellites. In an alternative embodiment the change in the communication signal is a change in the transmitted signal in response to power control commands. Apparatuses, such as a mobile communication system which includes an SPS receiver and a communication receiver, are also described.

L'invention concerne des procédés et appareils permettant de déterminer la position d'un récepteur mobile de système de positionnement par satellites (SPS) couplé à un récepteur ou émetteur-récepteur de communications. Dans un procédé donné à titre d'exemple, on détermine un changement au niveau d'un signal de communication reçu par le récepteur de communication. On détermine ensuite un paramètre sur la base de ce changement et les signaux SPS provenant de satellites SPS sont traités en fonction dudit paramètre. Selon d'autres détails de ce procédé, le changement implique la fluctuation du niveau du signal de communication et le paramètre correspond à des informations relatives au déplacement, qui spécifient une plage de fréquences pour la recherche des signaux SPS au cours du procédé d'acquisition des signaux SPS auprès des satellites SPS. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, le changement au niveau du signal de communication est un changement au niveau du signal émis en réponse à des commande de contrôle de puissance. L'invention concerne également des appareils, notamment un système de communication mobile comprenant un récepteur SPS et un récepteur de communications.
