A low power solution to GPS receivers

6.374 was a really good and tough course to take after some digital and VLSI software knowledge. I learnt lots of software tools, such as Cadence virtuoso, Spice, NanoSim, etc. This is a two-person project that was done at the end of the course. My partner Wei An and I are designing a low power GPS receiver (down conversion, despreading, and accumulation) and analyzing its performance. It's a very successful project. I was happy to see how much we could do in one week. (the time we were actually working)
