Original Abstract Submitted
A system and a method are disclosed for handling outages in a Global Navigation Satellite System receiver. In some embodiments, the method includes: determining that a measure of combined signal level is less than a threshold, the measure of combined signal level being a measure of a signal level on a first channel of a Global Navigation Satellite System receiver and measure of a signal level on a second channel of the Global Navigation Satellite System receiver; and opening a tracking loop on a third channel of the Global Navigation Satellite System receiver.
